Title: SOFTRANS for UNIX System V

I have completed porting SOFTRANS to Bell System UNIX 5.0.  This package
interfaces with the SOFTERM terminal Emulation package to allow an
Apple to exchange files with the UNIX host using a data-compressed error-
checked block-mode protocol.  Also supported is the ability to route
Apple disk files into a process (eg redirect stdin on the UNIX host to
the Apple disk file) and to redirect the output from a process out to
an Apple disk file or to an Apple local printer.

The SOFTERM Terminal Emulator is available from:

	SOFTRONICS
	6626 Prince Edward Place
	Memphis, TN   38139		(901) 755-5006

who can also provide you with a copy of the SOFTRANS program that runs
on UNIX to interface with the SOFTERM package.
