Version 11.02 update which was just released by Freesoft changes the way
that Auto_receive in zmodem works. It will work now whether you have
Auto_Receive enabled or not, unless you change a PUTPARAM to give yourself
the option to Auto_Recieve.
There were a variety of other fixes in 11.02. However the size of the update
file makes it a little difficult to post in comp.binaries.mac without
breaking it into a dozen pieces because stuffed its still almost 300K and
there are 2 files, one for 11.0 to 11.02 and one for 11.01 to 11.02 depending
on which you received on your master disk is the one that you will need.
I posted a msg from Scott last Friday that indicates however that you can
send your WK Master back to Freesoft for a free update to the latest
version of WK 11. Should you not have access to GEnie or a BBS that has
the update files posted. Should you send your Master disk off to FreeSoft
to update in this manner, I would suggest that you send it in some method
that allows insurance so that if in the remote chance that it gets lost,
you have a way to be compensated.
