I constantly got those for a while. It is a known Kermit bug within the HA/5
program. They can't seem to fix it. I finally got it to transfer but I had to 
reload HA/5 and not change any .cfg files after the install. When I migrated my 
old .cfg files over to 3.0, i got the errors. But without the old files, the 
lines on the news groups came out cockeyed. So I had 2 HA/5 directories, one 
for reading and one for d/l. What a kludge. My file transfers were only 300 or 
so cps with a 14.4 connection. So I did the simple thing and d/l the new 
CK5a188 beta kermit package and now i have no problems. My throughput on file 
transfers is now close to 1300 cps with packet-length's of 2000.

Hi.

I have received the service pack, but can't install it on my

 Has it anything to do with installing OS2 on drive D?

Look on 'ftp-os2.nmsu.edu'. There are complete ports of emacs (including 
lisp unlike the msdos microemacs port) and emx/gcc. Both work extremely well 
as far as I can tell (having never used the unix versions).

You must be running Ami Pro in seamless mode.  If you are, the speed bar
do not work properly under the GA.  The Service Pak fixes this problem.

You need to open an MS-DOS partition under OS/2.  You will then be able to
run the MS-DOS version V2.1 under this arrangement.  The Windows version
does not operate under OS/2.

Wolfram Research currently has no plans for an OS/2 version.  Perhaps if
there is enough demand one day to justify porting the software to OS/2, we
will re-consider.

If you have additional questions, please let me know.

Those comments are somewhat confused, or at least confusing.

Here is the situation:

 If the modem is properly set up, then there is no carrier line before
 the connections is established.  In this case, you should use

	dial number
	connect

 If the modem is configured to always supply carrier detect, then you
 can just connect and manually dial yourself.

 If the modem never supplies the carrier detect line, then use

	set carrier off

 This will allow you to connect regardless of the status of the carrier
 detect line.

This is one of the known bugs (it's in one of the readme files). If
you run it from the command line in an OS/2 window it hangs. But if
make a desktop object for it and run it from an icon, it works fine.
I am running with the CSD.

Specificially with regard to the 'file' vs 'files' drag-and-drop issue,
I called IBM Tech Support the other day, and asked 'em to tell me how an
app could be set up to accept multiple files via the drag-n'-drop method
from the desktop.  I was told that it's a 'program design issue': i.e.,
if you want to be able to drag multiple files to a single application,
and have the application run (as a single invocation of the program) on
the bunch of files passed, you have to *write* the program that way --
there's no way to set up the WPS to pass multiple arguments to a single
program by the drag'n'drop method if it wasn't designed as such from
scratch.  FYI.

Cheers,

There is another similar piece of software called UW - Unix Windows.
It's also a host-client arrangement.  The host has been developed for
BSD and there are client versions for the Amiga, the Mac, DOS &
Windows. (I believe it was originally developed for the Amiga) It's
been around for quite a while.  I'm using the Windows version in
seamless.  The released version 1.03 for windows has only adm31
emulation, but the beta 1.04 has pretty decent vt100 support & ZModem.
The person who is writing the Windows version is Russ Poffenberg
(poffen@sj.ate.slb.com).  I hear rumours that a PM version is being
worked on.

This type of comm package is *very nice* -- just like having multiple
xterms without the overhead of X.

(IMHO anyway)

This information refers to an IBM internal network, I assume from your

How about this:

Create a file called zmr.cmd and put it in some directory in your PATH.
Here is mine:
----------- zmr.cmd ------------------
set M2Z=-f 1 -b 2400 -h   <-- m2z paramters
set rz=f:\tmp             <- receiving dir
set sz=f:\tmp\*
m2zmodem -r
-------------zmr.cmd ----------------

For the sending command, modify it a little:
-------------zms.cmd ----------------
set M2Z=-f 1 -b 2400 -h     <-- m2z parameters
set rz=f:\tmp               
set sz=f:\uploads\*         <-- sending directory
m2zmodem -s
-------------zms.cmd ----------------

To receive something:
remote% sz -vv somefile
Ctrl-]C
C-Kermit>!zmr

It works for me.

Is anybody out there working on a drag and drop Compression/Decompression tool

What I had in mind was something like what I have used on an Archemides. An
icon on the desk top which you can drag file(s) on to and it will decompress
them for you or if they are not compressed it will compress them for you
perhaps with a prompt for the compression method, or else it would just select
the most approiate for the file type.

There is a lot of interest in a project like this, at least down under. So if
noone is presently working on one would someone like a little project?

Has anybody tryed Mickey's Colors & Shapes in OS/2 and got it working.
When I try to run it it gives an error, a conflict with the LPT1.   
Thanks,
