Some new for PC-ZX link...

ZXNet echo conference «real.speccy»

From Vlad Sotnikov To All 15 July 2002

Hello All!

Subject. Today FK0 wrote a module for the Shalaevsky emulator, which, when accessed from the emulator to 0 and 1 bits of ports 221 and 31, redirects them to the PC's LPT port. Thus, from the emulator it became possible to access the PC
link.

Today I launched 2 MMDs, in real life and in the emulator, and watched with emotion how files
fly from one to another. You can chat between them :) Now it’s convenient
to transfer files from real to .trd, bypassing DOS.

Opening prospects for this:

1. You can extend a link between the PC and Speck, and drive files directly to trd. Which,
actually, I described above.

2. You can extend a link between two Specs. But this is not very relevant, because... such a link completely replaces TAPE-TAPE.

3. You can extend a MAC link between 2 PCs :) Load in both MMDs and
drive files back and forth or chat :) Or play Spekov's
toys over the network: chess, X-reversy...


In general, this module was created for me It was more convenient to test modem chess. This is how my brother and I play now: I’m in real life, and he’s next to the PC in Shalaev’s emulator :)
