Have you seen the new PORTFOLIO computer from ATARI? The PC you can
put in your pocket.
I have one on order. I also want a Serial interface for it. But this
is Atari and they don't have any yet. When I have the interface I want
to run a modem on it.
The trouble is that it comes with 128K of RAM. This can be expanded to
640K, when Atari have the bits.
So does any one know of a Comms program that runs in 128K?
I have KERMIT 2.32 but I cannot see in the docs if it will run in
128K.
The program does not have to be up to Procomm standards just work the
modem and get the incoming data onto the screen.
Any comments welcome.

There is an old PD program called Omega Term that was written is
assembler. The program is very fast and very similar to an older
version of QMODEM or ProComm. I have a copy archived somewhere. It
should fit within the memory limitations as I once had it running on a
PC Junior.
There is also a program called Tiny Talk (about 11K) that will give
you basic communications. Let me know if I can help.
