Jacobson Message-ID: <5047@mindlink.UUCP> Date: 7 Mar 91 12:51:47 GMT Organization: MIND LINK! - British Columbia, Canada Lines: 28 Sorry for the garbled subject - that was how we got it here. anyway, I understand that someone, at sometime asked: >I am looking for a set of XCMDs to allow the control of a modem from >HyperCard to which Henry Halff replied: APDA offers a set of XCMDS called the HyperCard Serial Communications Toolkit. Unfortunately it doesn't have xmodem, but it only costs $20. If you want XMODEM you can spring for the Macintosh Communications Toolbox ($80), the Macintosh Communications Tools, Basic Connectivity Set ($50)--which has the XMODEM tool--and the HyperCard Macintosh Communications Toolbox Toolkit ($30). I'll add to that the application called ModemMaker by (I think) Andrew Stein. I have just received a copy, originally from Compuserve. This app is supposed to automate the creation of modem xcmds for hyupercard, among other things. When I have looked at the app, I will upload info on its source and author, and a short review of how it works. Meanwhile, based on the word of an experience user, it sounds like it may do what you want. ______________________________________________________________ | Rick McCormack | IMAGISTICS BUSINESS THEATRE TECHNOLOGY | | Vancouver, BC | Information transfer - with a purpose. | | CANADA | ________________________________________ | | AOL: Rique | INTERACTIVE COMPREHENSIVE ENLIGHTENING | |________________|____________________________________________|
