Short: Link Amiga to Psion S3/a palmtops
Author: o.wagner@pluribus.wupper.de
Uploader: o.wagner@pluribus.wupper.de
Version: 0.10 (beta)
Type: comm/misc
Long:
AmigaNCP is a implementation of the Psion link protocol which is e.g.
built into the Psion S3/S3a palmtop's ROM. It's main purpose is to provide
vice-versa nfs-like file access.
AmigaNCP features:
-- the "amigancp.library" providing all the network I/O functions.
-- the AmigaNCP-FileServer providing transparent access to Amiga files from
the Psion side with optional on-the-fly character conversion.
-- the AmigaNCP-FileSystem providing transparent access to Psion files from
the AmigaDOS environment.
-- a print server allowing to print directly from your Psion to a printer
connected to your Amiga.
-- full developer documentation and associated material to faciliate NCP
services from within your own applications.
AmigaNCP requires:
-- AmigaOS 2.04 or better (localization supported).
-- the IBM-PC version of the 3-Link cable.
Please note that this is still a beta release which may be full of bugs &
quirks. Please report bugs to "o.wagner@pluribus.wupper.de".
The installation script might fail with old versions of the Installer
utility. If you face errors upon installation, obtain Installer_125.lha from
the AmiNet.
Changes from Release 0.9 to 0.10 (beta)
---------------------------------------
-- library is now named "amigancp.library" to avoid problems with
an already existing, similary named library.
-- fixed several reconnection problems which mainly occured when
the Psion auto-powered off.
-- now correctly handles filenames with non ASCII characters.
-- fixed several file system problems, esspecially with
Examine()/ExNext().
-- fixed bugs in the file server which caused data trashing on
large files.
