FOR THE COMMODORE 64.. ..I WAN
T TO THANK EVERYONE WHO HELPED MAKE THIS
PROGRAM POSSIBLE, BUT TO INCLUDE..ALL T
HE NAMES OF THE FOLKS WHO HAVE HELPED WO
ULD TAKE WAY TOO MUCH ROOM... ..
NEW FEATURES...
.VERSION 7.4.2 CLEANS UP SOME OF THE MEN
U SCREENS, AND ADDS THE ABILITY TO..PULS
E DIAL HAYES STYLE MODEMS. IT ALSO PERM
ITS THE USE OF THE COMMODORE LOGO..KEY A
ND X TO INITIATE XMODEM PROTOCOL TRANSFE
RS FROM TERMINAL MODE, AND USE..OF THE C
OMMODORE LOGO KEY AND H TO HANG UP THE M
ODEL 1660 CBM MODEM 300... ..XMOBUF VER
7.4.2 PROVIDES SEVERAL ENHANCEMENTS OVER
EARLIER VERSIONS. MOST..NOTABLY, IT IN
CLUDES JOE O'HARA'S XMODEM MACHINE LANGU
AGE MODULE THAT EMPLOYS..A CONCEPT PROVE
N IN XMOBUF 7.3 TO ELIMINATE PADDING AT
THE END OF TRANSFERRED..FILES. IN DEALI
NG WITH XMODEM TRANSFERS EXTENSIVELY ON
DELPHI, WE NOTED THAT..THERE WERE A NUMB
ER OF FILES THAT THE RAW XMODEM PROTOCOL
SIMPLY COULD NOT..HANDLE, DUE TO PADDIN
G AT THE END OF THE LAST XMODEM BLOCK TR
ANSFERRED...XMOBUF VER 7.4.2 IMPLEMENTS
2 MODIFICATIONS TO OVERCOME THIS. FIRST
, ON UPLOAD,..THE PADDING CHARACTER WILL
ALWAYS BE DIFFERENT FROM THE LAST VALID
CHARACTER..IN THE FILE. ORDINARILY, XM
OBUF VER 7.4.2 WILL PAD WITH ASCII 26 (A
CTRL-Z),..UNLESS THE LAST VALID CHARACT
ER IN THE FILE IS AN ASC(26). IN THIS C
ASE, THE..PAD CHARACTER IS CHANGED TO A
NULL..(ASC(0)). THE OTHER MODIFICATION
IS THAT, DURING DOWNLOAD (RECEIVING A FI
LE..AT YOUR COMPUTER), THE PAD CHARACTER
IS STRIPPED FROM THE LAST RECEIVED BLOC
K BEFORE THE LAST BLOCK IS WRITTEN TO..D
ISK. THE PROGRAM CHECKS THE LAST RECEIV
ED CHARACTER AND STRIPS IT AWAY,..REMOVI
NG ALL LIKE CHARACTERS WITH IT... ..THE
GROSS RAMIFICATION IS THAT YOU GET A PER
FECT FILE TRANSFER EVERY TIME, AND..CAN
THROW YOUR PADDING STRIPPER UTILITY IN T
HE GARBAGE. DOWNLOADED FILES ARE..READY
TO RUN RIGHT AWAY.....
GENERAL CONSIDERATIONS.. ..TH
IS PROGRAM HAS BEEN DESIGNED WITH THE CA
SUAL USER IN MIND. NO OVERRIDE OF..THE
KEYBOARD BUFFER HAS BEEN MADE, SO EXPERT
USERS CAN KEY AHEAD THROUGH THE..MENU C
HOICES. THE FIRST ENTRY SCREEN..GIVES T

MOST APPLICATIONS, THE BULLETIN BOARD MO

L DUPLEX, NO PARITY. THE HALF DUPLEX MO
DE IS DESIGNED..SPECIFICALLY FOR USE BET
WEEN C64S AND ON THOSE COMMERCIAL SERVIC
ES SUCH AS..GENIE THAT REQUIRE HALF DUPL
EX. IT..SETS SOFTWARE HALF DUPLEX SO TH
AT IT WILL WORK WITH ANY MODEM CONFIGURA

T IS UP TO YOU TO ENSURE THAT THE FILE Y

ROGRAM HAS BEEN UPLOADED TO FLAGSHIP COM
MODORE ON..DELPHI AND IS INCLUDED WITH T
HE XMOBUF VER 7.4 GROUP. IT CAN NOT RUN
, BECAUSE..BASIC HAS INSUFFICIENT WORKSP
ACE, SO IT MUST BE COMPILED. IN ORDER T
O MAKE..THE BUFFER AS LARGE AS POSSIBLE,
MEMORY IS GREATLY REPARTITIONED, AND IN
THE..COMPILED VERSION, BASIC IS LEFT A
MERE 76 BYTES OF WORKSPACE. WITH ONLY T

.GETTING XMOBUF... ..
KNOWN SHORTCOMINGS.. ..XMOBUF
VER 7.4 HAS IMPROVED SPEED IN THE TERMIN
AL LOOP, BUT DROPS AN OCCASIONAL..CHARAC
TER AT 1200 BAUD. OPENING THE BUFFER IN
VOKES MONITORING OF THE RS232..PORT STAT
US, AND XON-XOF FLOW CONTROL, AND NO CHA
RACTERS ARE LOST...THE TERMINAL RUNS A L
ITTLE SLOWER WITH..THE BUFFER OPEN, AND
THE LOADING OF THE BUFFER IS SLOWER THAN
EQUIVALENT..MACHINE LANGUAGE. A KERNAL
SAVE ROUTINE IN VERSION 7.4 MAKES THE S
AVE TIME..EQUIVALENT TO A NORMAL PROGRAM
FILE SAVE. TERMINAL SLOWDOWN IS HARDLY
..NOTICABLE AT 300 BAUD. THE STATUS LIN
E IN THE DOWNLOAD IS DISPLACED DURING..T
RANSMISSION OF THE FIRST BLOCK, AND PRES
ENTS A RATHER ODD APPEARANCE..DURING SUB
SEQUENT BLOCKS. IT IS NO CAUSE FOR ALAR
M AS THE PROTOCOL RUNS..PERFECTLY. PERH
APS WHEN JOE HAS TIME, WE CAN GET HIM TO
FIX IT... .. .
..AND NOW A WORD FROM..... ..I'VE BEEN E
NCOURAGED BY A NUMBER OF PEOPLE TO ATTEM
PT A 'FREEWARE' APPROACH TO..DISTRIBUTIO
N OF XMOBUF. VERSION 7.4 ADDS FEATURES
THAT CANNOT BE PRESENTLY..FOUND IN ANY O
THER TERMINAL PROGRAM AT ANY PRICE, MOST
NOTABLY THE STRIPPING..OF THE PADDING I
N COMBINATION WITH AUTOMATIC ASCII TO PE
T ASCII TEXT..CONVERSION. XMOBUF IS THE
PRODUCT OF HUNDREDS OF HOURS OF EXPERIM
