Please note the cross-posting when doing any followups! I have pretty much completed the little project I was working on. It's a program which sends faxes out using a Fax modem on a COM port. It relies on GNU Ghostscript to convert postscript files to G3 fax files so you have to have a compiled version of GNU Ghostscript with the device dfaxhigh compiled in. I compiled the GNU stuff myself with GCC (couldn't get EMX to produce a working copy) and for the little test documents I've tried it works great! As stated I'm willing to distribute the source code as well as an executable copy, along with an executable copy of Ghostscript with the fax drivers compiled in. I can only guarantee that my program works with a Supra v.32bis faxmodem and I've only tried it at 9600 baud. Also, I don't have time, at present, to guarantee any bug fixes that may arise or any other form of support. I would like to hear from people about problems they have with the program but don't have the time to fix any. I'd like to see if these conditions are acceptable and if there is sufficient interest to warrant placing the program on ftp-os2.NMSU.Edu? Eventually, when I'm outta school, and if the market is still good, I plan on releasing a shareware version with a nice WPS interface. The current version is just a command-line version. Any comments/suggestions are welcome! Gary Hennigan --------- PhD Student, Computational Electromagnetics New Mexico State University email: ghenniga@NMSU.Edu
