| ZCOMM.ZIP | Yes | 505081 | 6/21/1993 | ZComm 18.05 (Omen Technology; $40) is a shareware version of a commercial program that is considered by some to be the most advanced communications program available for the PC, and many of the same features are available in this shareware version. For example, the documentation says "ZCOMM exchanges files with the widest range of computer systems and networks, using documented, public error correcting file transfer protocols. Omen Technology's Cybernetic Data Recovery(TM) delivers accurate file transfers under difficult conditions that confound competitive programs." Among the protocols supported are Xmodem, Ymodem, Zmodem, Kermit Sliding Windows, Xmodem CRC-16, Ymodem-G, WXmodem, Advanced Kermit, and CompuServe's B Protocol. ZComm exchanges files with the widest range of computer systems and networks with a complete set of error correcting file transfer protocols. With Zcomm, if you lose connect in the middle of a file transfer, you can call back and resume the transfer right where you were cut off without wasted time or phone charges. Advanced features include text file translation, selective transfer of updated files, remote file maintenance, and a command that allows the YAM display to map ASCII characters to local alternates. |
