This double-sided 5.25" disk contains: Sneeze 2.1: Freeware by Karl Bunker - program launcher, txt & awp viewer/printer, graphics viewer, utility set. Shrinkit 3.4: Freeware by Andy Nicholas - Apple II standard archiving/dearchiving program, utility set. BinSCII 1.0.3: Freeware by David Whitney - Binary/Text conversion utility (Apple II standard). UU 1.1: Freeware by Andy Tefft - Binary/Text conversion utility (Unix standard). Comm.System 2.5: Freeware by Jim Ferr - Simply, easy to use communications program that supports Xmodem transfer and ASCII capture. Unshrink 2.1: Freeware by Andy Nicholas - Shrinkit for II+'s, unenhanced and/or 64k IIe's. In archived format (Shrinkit archive, of course) Zlink - Shareware by David Whitney - is included on side B of the disk. Zlink is a more advanced communications program that offers X- & Y-modem transfer capability and VT-100 emulation. Also in archived format on side B is ASCII Helper--Shareware by Clayburn Juniel III, this utility helps convert text files between different online systems by adding or removing linefeeds, carriage returns, etc... To take full advantage of these programs, IIe users should ensure their machines are enhanced, with at least 128k of RAM. IIc users should determine their ROM version by typing the following and pressing return at the Applesoft basic (]) prompt: ] Print Peek(64447) If a value other than 255 is returned, then your IIc has the necessary ROM version to take full advantage of your machines telecommunication abilities. All original documentation files are included. Docs for BinSCII, UU and Comm.System are in archived format due to space considerations. Archiving them allowed me to include ASCII Helper. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ For unenhanced IIe and II+ computers, ProDOS and DOS 3.3 versions of Kermit are also available by request. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ InTrec Software, Inc., publishers of ProTerm A2 and ProTerm Mac, sells properly wired modem cables for Apple IIc, IIc+, and IIGS computers.
