SEND VARS

Developer(s): David Hoshor
Date: 198x
Type: Program
Platform(s): TS 2068

A utility/extension for MTerm, for exchanging information between two modems.

To use Send-VARS with a BASIC program:

  1. Load BASIC program and/or variables that you want to send by MTerm modem program.
  2. Merge Send-VARS.
  3. Enter: go to 3.

The variables will be converted to a modem sendable form. When the recipient gets the program, he should enter: go to 4. The variables will now be restored.

To send code from high memory enter: go to 2. You will be prompted for length and address of code. The code will be moved into x$ and variables converted to sendable form.

When received the recipient must enter: go to 4. The code in x$ will be replaced in high memory.
