SOFT
ZX TERMINAL 97-YOUR WAY TO THE INTERNET
This is not a gimmick, but a very real possibility of entering
into World Wide Web, but more on that below. To begin you want
to introduce a new program. Our company with the participation
of oktivnom BAGroup (Beketov Alexei Afonin and Ilia) have
developed a new terminal program for computing system SKORPION,
allowing work in text mode, with stations in BBS, and with
Unix-shell servers and on the Internet. What you need: a
computer SKORPION any ProfPZU, controller and any SMUC Haye's
internal modem podklyuchennyy to SKORPION-y through the
controller SMUC.
Here are the main technical characteristics of terminal
Program:
* The display mode is 64 or 42 characters per line (for a fee
GMX-80) * TTY-terminal
* Work in its own operating sisteme (together with MS_DOS)
* Support for file transfer protocols X-Modem and Z-Modem!
* Maximum speed of transmission and reception card Turbo +
-2600
characters per second
* Availability of service features (redial)
* Use hardware flow uprovleniya (RTS / CTS)
Immediately answer your first question: what is its own
operating system? Currently, the Speccy raspostraneny system 2:
TR-DOS and IS_DOS. The first is not suitable for this problem
for many reasons (the limit on the maximum amount of faila-64K,
a small number of files on the disk, otsutstvie Assortment and
subdirectories, the inability to add files and etc). With
IS_DOS Th complicated system, in principle, not bad, but the
restriction on amount of disk space-16MB, and a sort of closed
system makes it rather difficult to write programs for it,
though if it will be very necessary, something will come
ZX-Terminal and under IS_DOS. Our OC is built on the principles
used in MS-DOS, and add-on program (November-December 1997)
will support MS-DOS disks and TR DOS directly.
The main objective of the new program and the new system
is primarily to ensure a comfortable working hardware-software
complex for the opportunity to work on the BBS, networking
FidoNet and the Internet (connecting to the server, Unix-Shell,
the service have now almost all ISPs), and just download
program or any interesting information. In the software part
complex will include all neobhodimye for easy use in FidoNet
mailers fidoshny-mailer, tosser, etc. are currently being
aktivnyi work to create these programs. Well, further, who
knows maybe Internet Explorer for Scorpion-a appear.
The program requires a Scorpion-y connect ProfPZU
Controller SMUC, an internal modem for IBM PC, using the ISA
slot, or rather its 8-bit part (any from 1200 up to 33600). May
be used by any Intelligent modem with hardware flow control
(XON / XOFF control is not implemented). In Currently, work is
required HDD, connected via SMUC.
Wait for your offers and wishes!
