I use KERMIT as well as UMODEM and UC from time to time. I was looking at the man page for UMODEM and UC and I saw that other protocols could be specified for transfer. The following are mentioned: "CP/M User's Group XMODEM" protocol TERM II File Transfer Protocol (FTP) Number 1 TERM II File Transfer Protocol Number 4 for packetized file up/downloading. TERM FTP 3 (CP/M UG) TERM II/TERM III File Transfer Protocol 1 developed by Richard Conn Would someone enlighten me as to what the differences are between these protocols, robustness, etc.? I use MDM730 on my CPM side and the default protocol which is TERM FTP 3 (CP/M UG), I think. I would hate to be missing out on something. Richard McGee, dickmc@brl-tgr.arpa
