Abstract of INFO-MAC archived encoded Mac binary file 'comm/ctb/zmodem-tool-103-demo.hqx' Uploaded 07/06/1995 129728 bytes Date: Wed, 5 Jul 1995 17:20:44 -0700 From: mspace@netcom.com (Brian Hall) Subject: Mark/Space ZMODEM Demo 1.0.3 Announcing version 1.0.3 of the Mark/Space ZMODEM Tool Demo You can find the demo at ftp.netcom.com in pub/ms/mspace. It will also be uploaded to AOL, AppleLink, eWorld, and CompuServe, as well as sent to macgifts. The Mark/Space ZMODEM Tool is... ...fast Mark/Space has created a communications toolbox file transfer tool that implements the popular, robust, and efficient ZMODEM file transfer protocol. ...compatible As a Communications Toolbox file transfer tool, Mark/Space brings ZMODEM to such third party applications as VersaTerm, MacTerminal, Termy, and the communications portions of ClarisWorks, GreatWorks, and many more. Once installed, the ZMODEM file transfer protocol becomes available to every application that supports communications toolbox file transfer tools. ...powerful The tool supports auto-receive, for reception of files without user intervention, as well as auto-resume. If a file transfer is aborted for any reason, the transfer can be resumed at the point at which it left off - resulting in a substantial savings in time and connect charges. Transfers can also take place over connections that interpret control characters - such as telnet connections, or serial connections using software flow control. Multiple files can be sent or received in a single batch for even greater efficiency. ...flexible The tool features both a brief status window, in which basic information about the transfer is displayed, and a detailed status window in which many more details are displayed. At all times the speed of the transfer and the estimated time remaining is shown. Balloon help is available in the configuration dialog - as well as the status window - to explain settings as well as status information. If you do not already have a terminal program that supports file transfer tools, you might want to download the demo version of our general purpose application - Communicate Lite. The demo version supports downloading, but not uploading. There are no other restrictions. Enjoy!
