Is there a PD telecommunications prgm (similar to Telix for MS-DOS) which runs on unix? I would like Kermit, ZMODEM support and a minimal terminal emulation (v100 or something). Also, some form of modem dialing capability (for a modem hooked to the Unix machine). -- Kevin Routh (routh@rtp.semi.harris.com) Harris Corporation, Durham, NC (919) 361-1622

you want pcomm (current version 1.2.10); a procomm clone expressly for
unix. it's available on osu-cis and fine ftp sites everywhere (tm).

Check newer volumns first for the src and patches. It was written specifically for SCO 386 Xenix and UNIX, but some people already contributed ISC patches. So with some effort, I imagine you can port it to other flavors of 386 Unices or even SysV UNIX running on big systems. It's really feature rich and comes with nice docs too. It has all things you want. Chin Fang Mechanical Engineering Department Stanford University fangchin@leland.stanford.edu

It has all things you want. I am busy translating the docs from nroff into LaTeX. Actually tr2tex has done this but I must still hack up all the tables and stuff and make it a bit nicer :-)-O Beeing busy in the hospital I don't work on it every day (or week) for that matter. I have promised the author wht@n4hgf.Mt-Park.GA.US that I am working on it so he will also prod me once in a while. ecu looks VERY complete! regards, el ps: please if someone ports it, notify the author! -- Dr. Eberhard W.
