Message-ID: <11474@j.cc.purdue.edu> Date: 13 Nov 90 23:07:41 GMT Sender: news@j.cc.purdue.edu Reply-To: zhou@brazil.psych.purdue.edu (Albert Zhou) Organization: Purdue University Lines: 7 I am considering writing a program to handle sending and receiving data with modem in the background, just as the printer does, so that I can use my PC for other purposes at the same time. I am not well-informed, and there might already exist such a program (However, I looked through the manual of KERMIT and could not find such things). Any information about it, or any interest in my planned program is very welcome.
