The directory JCAF; on MIT-MC contains the following files:
MODEM 781ASM
MODEM 781COM
MODEM 781HEX
MODEM 78LIB
MODEM 781HIS
MCNFG 781ASM
MNUM 781ASM
This version of MODEM7 has not been put in AR61:CPM; since Keith is
going to upload another version for me to combine with the present
version. In the meantime some of you may want to use this version.
A description of the changes follows:
;11/10/82 Combined MODEM771 and MODEM780 as follows:
;
; 1. Used erase file function in 780,
; 2. Used 780 code to make display of error count start at 1
; and changed display to decimal,
; 3. Used 780 idea for throttled output on terminal mode
; transfer of text file to remote but wrote new routines
; including one for user to set speed,
; 4. Moved disk reset to DIR routine as in 780,
; 5. Used 780 code to give kbytes free on DIR command but
; modified to give kbytes free on requested drive instead
; of default drive.
;
; Made the following changes:
;
; 1. Eliminated IMSAI front panel routines,
; 2. Changed so PMMI control-D (disconnect) checks for file
; open on returning to menu mode,
; 3. Fixed file display on bulk transfer so that spaces are
; eliminated and period is inserted if required,
; 4. Changed M(enu) to H(elp) command,
; 5. Added code to allow echo mode to use optional toggling of
; send linefeed after carriage return,
; 6. Added toggling of Checksum/CRC modes on file receive,
; 7. Added optional code to clear to end of screen on next line
; from current cursor position when returning from terminal
; mode, this eliminates jumbled screen when working remote
; which positions cursor.
