OK
I suspect it's a font problem. Why I say that is because once Telix
has been fired up the first time, it's no longer a problem, ie, the
font is in memory. This is sorta what I get altho a bit different
because of the difference in fonts...

Write your reply.

assistant: Hey all, I've a few posts asking about up and down loading using Telix.
I have been a Telix user with several versions over the past several years
and even though I am by no means a highly competent or expert user I have
found it very easy and forgiving. Last year while browsing about in a local
bbs I came across a transfer protocol called IceZmodem that promised dramatic
increases in data rates. After a few conflicts getting set up I increased my
data transfer rate fron @2400 bps using standard Zmodem to <really> 16000 to
18000 (thats right -thousand) bps using IceZmodem!!! Recently I even
itnessed
a transfer rate >20000 bps when tied to a bbs that used IceZmodem (auto
etect
turbo) I've tried using v3.51 and am not as happy with it as I am v3.2. I
could
not get IceZmodem configured properly and the high transfer rate is important
to me. The script learning capability looks promising, too bad it cannot be
transplanted into v3.2....Really, ask your local sysop's about finding a copy
of IceZmodem ( IZM102.zip) if you can't find one leave me a post here or have
your sysop "freq" the file from this node..I'll upload it to my board if
necessary.

the other software.  I'd like to use Telix, but they and Gateway and

user: You are replying to All about "QDHOST.SLT".

Write your reply.

assistant: The QDHOST script has not been updated in several years
and consquently does not reflect the DCE baud rates above
19200.
I attempted to increase the rates to include up to 33600
and in doing so have lost the ability to detect the modem
negotiation rate.
Prior to my hammer tuning, after the negotiation, the screen
would display  "Determining Baud Rate....."  Then would
announce "Failed.." due to the fact that the connection
rate did not match the rates in the script.  That pushed
me to add the faster rates.
Now, no announcements and no displays are evident and neither
does the DCE rate appear on the bottom line of the screen.
I have tweaked various declarations, etc. all without joy!
If anyone has had success in this effort I would be *very*
happy to hear of how you did this and offer kudus a-plenty.

Tracy - the registered version and the shareware version are NOT the
same program.  You cannot "tell" the shareware program of your
registered status.  You'll have to contact deltaComm, explain your
situation, and get another copy of the registered program.
They should have your registration on record.  There may be a small
charge for a set of duplicate disks, though.

Registering TELIX
ost
Write a message to the Site where you originally registered Telix, and tell
them this story. Give them all the information that you remember about your
original registration, such as registered name, adres etc.
If they're even the LEAST decent, they will sure give you the info you need.
But next time, make a safety copy of any registered software. Don't allow
yourself to get into a mess like this. Hardware and disks may fail sometimes
(however, I read that you did it yourself, this time), and when such failure
happens, thing get lost. Be prepared!
Thank you, (did I sneeze? ;-) )
