TMODEM
Tmodem may well be the worlds fastest file transfer protocol.
At least, none that I've tested can beat it.
Tmodem's derived from the HTMS protocol Translink with
special modifications so that it'll work well with BBS
systems and Terminal programs.
Tmodem has a built in commucations manager and doesn't need
any type of fossil, in fact you should make sure you turn the
fossil OFF if running it on a BBS that uses a fossil.
Tmodem requires a number of command line switches.
-B <Baud Rate>
-P <Port Number>
-L <Serial Lock Rate>
-R Receive files
-F <Filenames>
-K Keep interrupted transfers (Do not use if running on a BBS)
-B, supported baud rates 300 - 115,200 Baud.
-P, Supported Com Ports, COM 1 and COM 2.
-L, Supported Locked Baud Rates, 300 - 115200 Baud.
-F, As many as DOS allows. Full drive, path, and filename
supported.
There must be one at least blank space between The switch and
the parameter..ie. -B<BLANK>2400
The -L switch is only for those that do not have COMx= set in
the envirnoment. If your running Osiris then Tmodem will use
the COMx= automatically.
Sample Osiris Command line (protocol control file)
Send : -B *B -P *P -F *F
RCV : -B *B -P *P -R
The Same for TelStar.
Tmodem may be freely used by Osiris and Telstar Owners. If
you do not own TelStar or Osiris, Tmodem must be purchased.
The price is 15 dollars (US Currency).

Revision History
Rev 1.00 : First Release
Rev 1.01 : Increased timer for start of transfer. Those
running slow XT's would time out before the
transfer could be started.
Added Crtl-X abort feature. A send session may
be canceled by sending 5 control-X's. This is
only effective BEFORE the actual transfer
starts. Once the transfer starts, it can not
be abort short of hanging up.
