Term program w/ zmodem for WB1.3?
« on: July 27, 2013, 11:53:38 PM »
I have an Amiga 1000 w/ KS 1.3 and 2MB FAST and an ext SCSI HD. I have been transferring files from my Mac via serial and JR-Comm using Z-Modem. This gurus my machine frequently, and it managed to corrupt my HD, Guru during a write. I got another drive on the unit and am dl'ing to RAM: now, but I would like a term prog that runs under 1.3 but does not crash the A1000.

FWIW, Terminus and JR-Comm never really crashed my A2000 under 1.3.

Any others? Thanks.

Weird.
I use JRComm on WB 1.3 with my A1000...
(Although I don't do a lot of file transfers, but when I do, they are Z-modem)

JR-COMM worked great for me on similar machines for years.

When I used JR-COMM I had a pretty much virgin OS install.
You probably have some evil hack installed in your OS.


Or its something silly like you are missing a font that it wants.

You could try SnoopDos or similar program to see if that tells you anything obvious.

JR-Comm never failed for me.  Used it all the way up to 3.1 with various serial devices.  ISTR BaudBandit.device worked the best for high-speed transfers with 28.8 modems and above.

Is JR-Comm failing for me because I have not done the 4 PAL chip wire mod on my A1000?
