Ross Greenberg, author of the "RamNet" background communications facility
for the IBM PC has just announced an augmentation to RamNet to allow it
to do UUCP communications. If I understand his plans correctly, he will
soon be offering different "drop in" overlays to handle any type of
communication protocols (like YMODEM, KERMIT, ZMODEM).
I have been using RamNet for a year now and it does work as advertised.
You can transfer files to and from another PC while doing other stuff in
the foreground. Ross is constantly improving the product, too.
You can get more information at the following address:
Software Concept Design
59 Third Avenue
New York, NY 10016
(212) 889-6431
The price for RamNet is currently $149.
I have no connection with Ross other than as a buyer of seven copies of his
product.
