New ZOO files are being archived with ZOO 2.10 at maximum compression. These files require ZOO 2.10 or BOOZ to extract. All manual references to LOOZ should be changed to BOOZ to reflect this technology upgrade. You can customize ZCOMM and GYAM file transfer display colors with the GCOLORS program. Use the following command: "gcolors script.t". Gyam and ZCOMM can read the resultant file with "source script.t". These operations can of course be automated with a script or bound to a function key. GCOLORS is included in YAMDEMO.ZIP, YAMDEMO.ZOO, ZCOMMEXE.ZIP, and GSZ.ZIP. TurboDial 2.36: A pattern match timeout of 0 now implies no timeout. 17.84: Fix for possible modem i/o lockup with older UART chips. Improvements in graphics transfer display. 17.83: Some fixes in GCOLORS. Coded added to recover from some types of defective serial ports. 17.82: When using printing with DOS (l numeric parameter == 0), printer faults generate the "Abort, Retry, Ignore, Fail" message. Responding "f" to this message a few times will now return control to YAM and cause YAM to deselect the printer by setting the l numeric parameter to -1. This allows normal operation to proceed if the printer fails. Printing can be reenabled by setting the l numeric parameter to 0. 17.80: Gyam.exe is a new flavor of PCDOS Pro-YAM with full screen graphics status display of file transfer data. The amount of information displayed depends on the protocol and sending program. XMODEM, Compuserve-B, and Kermit download displays make use of data supplied by the "estimate" command. Time of day and call elapsed time are displayed. MODEM status is displayed as follows: x = software flow restraint, X = hardware flow restraint, L = Loss of carrier detect, H = on Hook. The display color scheme may be altered with the "gcolors" command. The following gives a rather "rad" set of colors: gcolors 15,2,12,120,10,6,14,6,31,7,12,2,14,15,15,0,0 A menu driven companion program "gcolors" will support interactive modification of the screen colors. Setting the l numeric parameter to 0 uses DOS PRN: (stdprn) instead of ROM BIOS for printing with the lputp command, l mode, and terminal emulation printer controller mode. Doing so may generate "Abort Retry Fail" messages from some versions of DOS. DOS 5.0 generates spurious "Write Fault" messages with some parallel port adapters. In one instance, changing from the parallel port on an AST Advantage board to a recent Chinese "AT Multi I/O" board eliminated the DOS error messages. Wyse 60 printer controller and aux print modes are now supported. 17.78: The MODEM string parameter has been added to allow ZCOMM to use the new advanced dialing scripts (adial) without difficulty. This is initialized by the MODEM environment string (if present). References to the "aprompt" string should read "altprompt". Keyboard mapping mode is no longer required for ANSI KAM to be effective. Conference mode transmission now obeys throttle. 17.77: The -I option has been added to the sz and sb commands. The -I option causes new versions of VMS rz to store files with the VMS Variable length (mrs=510) binary format. The main use of this VMS record format is to prevent VMS Kermit programs from altering file contents. The string parameters altprompt, tmodes, nodename, parity, and speed are new to TurboDial 2.35. altprompt Prompt string for ALT-2 (similar to mprompt) tmodes Default term function modes for f, learn, F-2, t commands nodename Unix system node name parity string representation of number of bits and parity, e.g. 8n speed string representation of speed as set by "speed" command Usage of the statliner parameter has been improved. If statliner begins with a space, it is appended to the status line information. Otherwise it is processed for string substitutions and character escapes and replaces the right hand side of the status line. "Handshake slow" is more effective for ZMODEM CRC-32 and MobyTurbo downloads. pcANYWHERE "A" command has been removed from ZCOMM and Pro-YAM. 17.74 -n flag added to echo command suppresses cr/lf and reverse video. (TurboDial 2.34) Sz -e is more network compatible. 17.72 Corrected bad CRC calculation on zero length blocks. 17.71 Corrected incorrect calculation of disk free space on very large disk drives. 17.70 Code changes to improve operation with the Intel SatisFAXtion(Tm) modem/fax board.
