DOC file for QMXFER 1.2
Command line parameters :
-C Check for a Carrier present, abort if not.
-R Receive the file
-S Send the file
-F name File to be send/received
-L COMx Use com port COM1 or COM2 (no colon)
-B baud Use baud rate (300/1200/2400/4800/9600)
-P x Protocol to use : X = Xmodem
C = CRC Xmodem
I = Imodem
Y = Ymodem & 1K Xmodem
G = Ymodem-G
-N nnn Node file to show success/fail status msgs. This file
has the following format :
[FILENAME]
[Upload] or [Download]
[x = Protocol] (where x is X/C/I/Y/G)
[Success] or [Fail]
EOF
The file will be created in the default directory with the
name of [XFER-nnn.DEF] where nnn is 1-3 alphanumeric
characters.
The -C and -N parameters are optional.
The -R and -S parameters are mutually exclusive (only one, but not both)
Examples:
1. Use COM1, 1200 baud, Xmodem, Sending file TESTFILE.TXT
QMXFER -L COM1 -B 1200 -P X -S -F TESTFILE.TXT
2. Use COM2, 9600 Baud, Ymodem, Receiving file INFILE.DAT
QMXFER -L COM2 -B 9600 -P Y -R -F INFILE.DAT
Many of the RBBS-PC Sysops have requested that you be able to modify the
colors used by QMXFER. There is now a patch area in the code to change the
colors as you see fit.
Directions:
First, copy the QMXFER.COM to QMX.COM so you are not working with the
original code.
Then enter the following:
DEBUG QMX.COM
-D 2D70<cr>
4420:2D70 08 43 4F 4C 4F 52 53 20-3E 07 01 07 07 01 3C 1A .COLORS >.....<.
(rest of the lines are not important)
.
.
.
.
Now, the bytes between the > and < are the colors used by QMXFER.
Change them and do a W to save the changes.
Byte1 (2D79) Window Frame Foreground (0-15)
Byte2 (2D7A) Window Frame Background (0-7 )
Byte3 (2D7B) Inner Window Highlight (0-15)
Byte4 (2D7C) Inner Window Normal (0-15)
Byte5 (2D7D) Inner Window Background (0-7 )
This is a preliminary DOC file that will get expanded in the final
release. It is now in release 1.1 and the file has still not been
expanded. It you need more information on the protocols, please get a
copy of the QMODEM SST 3.0 DOC file.

Revision History:
1.0 - First Release for RBBS-PC.
1.1 - Fixes:
Removed the "Press any key to continue" when it encountered an
error. This resulted in hung BBS systems and thats a NO-NO!
Added the Patch area to set colors for the Sysops preferences.
1.2 - Fixes:
Fixed a potential problem with filesizes where the code would
abort on 0 byte files. There was a potential I/O Error in the
same block of code that would generate an error at address
$330A.
Added Errorlevel return codes if the command line is incorrect
and these can be tested by the DOS ERRORLEVEL command in BATCH
files.
