Using a TS2068, modem, and Loader V software, and MScript one can create text files, and UPLOAD the files to a BBS or another computer via the modem.
1. Create the text file on MScript or Tasword 2.
2. Save the text to tape or disc (in my case Oliger)
SAVE / “TEXT” with the MScript program
3. LOAD Loader V
4. Select #3 LOAD BUFFER it will hold over 27K, and the MScript file max is less than 16.3K.
5. You will then be asked for a FILENAME ? Enter name of file. If you modify the BASIC in the LOADER V program for the disc system you have, Line #61 should be changed.
6. You will be asked to select an option for carriage return. If a machine code program, pick 1. None. If text, you may select a CR after every line or paragraph.
7. After a successful LOAD, a message will say “LOAD complete, press any key”, do so and you will be back to the start menu.
8. Select #2 Dialing Menu, pick your BBS, and go through the log on procedure.
9. Once on, and into the Main Board Command Selection, key ‘U’ for an Upload. After the BBS goes to the files, it will ask for a name. Usually ten characters max. Then it checks for an identical name, if none, it will give the go ahead for an upload. Sometimes a short description of the file is asked for. Usually you will have between 40 seconds and 1 minute to commence the upload.
10. Key Caps Shift & 8, this will put a menu selection across the bottom of the screen.
11. Key M, this gives you a Menu. Key E to Exit.
12. PRINT USR 24024 <ENTER> and the buffer via X modem will start. Little ++++ will start showing up across the top of the screen.
13. When done, the BBS will tell you, and go on for your next command for the Main Board.
14. If you want to see how your message looks, key ‘F’ and call up the file you just Uploaded. If you want to download it, then go to the menu, ‘D’ for buffer menu, ‘E’ to Erase buffer, and back to terminal mode. ‘D’ for download, and when the BBS is ready, Caps Shift & 8, ‘M’for menu, ‘ E’ for Exit, now in BASIC, PRINT USR 24415 and you will download the file.
