The best way (in the level I era) was Rich Hogg's Xcopy (sold -> by uncle Frank). For those that didn't have Xcopy, Sandy Trevor (a -> color computer enthusiast, who coincidentally is a CompuServe V.P.) -> wrote a little RS BASIC program that makes an RS-DOS disk readable to -> either RS-DOS or OS9. It's called DOSOR9.BAS. If there is a suitable -> amount of interest, I will post it to the net (with Sandy's -> permission). -> I have been unable to transfer files from 0s9 to rsdos. I would like to see the source for thes programs posted on the net. -> The best I have seen in the overall is a package called Xcom9. It's -> written in asm (lots of source) and is small (<6k), fast, and -> reliable. It has xmodem protocol, as well as straigh ascii file -> capture, etc. I use it all the time (and I do mean *all*). If you're -> interested in transferring files to/from CompuServe, they have a -> semi-proprietary protocol called the 'B' protocol. There's a package -> called Smod8 (also PD) that uses 'B', which is far superior to Xmodem -> when tossing stuff back and forth over Telenet or Tymnet. Oh... the -> ASM source is for 6809/os9. The B protocol package is all in C. -> -> Where can I get the source other than compuserve? Can it be posted on the net? -- Gould, CSD, Home of the Firebreathers The opinions expressed are my own. ...siesmo!gould!csantiago ...mcnc!rti-sel!gould!potpourri!kato
