Easy Comm allows communicating with remote computers through the modem or through the direct link (COM port). All functions of Easy Comm can be selected either from pull-down menus or by pressing short-cut keys. DESCRIPTION: Easy Comm is a general purpose communication program. Easy Comm allows communicating with remote computers through the modem or through the direct link (COM port). You can upload files to or download files from the remote system using one of the several built-in file transfer protocols (XModem, YModem, YModemG, ZModem, ASCII). Emulation of ANSI and VT100 terminals is supported by Easy Comm. Another useful feature is a 10-screen buffer for a modem window which allows you viewing the last 10 screens of the modem window text. Connecting with a remote system is very easy - just add a new entry to the dial directory if it does not exist, set all the required parameters including the phone number, and press Alt-D. All new entries in the dial directory will be automatically stored on your disk. A chat mode is a convenient way of conducting a dialog with a remote system user. Auto-login feature of Easy Comm allows you to write simple scripts for automatic logging in to remote systems. Modem control strings can be customized for your modem requirements. Easy Comm also has a built-in, very flexible, text editor. It allows editing multiple files simultaneously. Each file will be opened in a separate window. Most functions can be selected from pull-down menus so you do not have to remember any commands (using mouse). More experienced users can invoke many commands with a single or double-key stroke (hot keys). If you have a problem or are not sure about something you can use a context-sensitive, on-line help by pressing F1 key. You can customize some features of Easy Comm. You can change the colors of edit windows, dialog boxes and other elements of the user interface. Easy Comm allows printing files. You can define various printer settings in a Print Options dialog box. You can also define headers and footers.
