I know I've broached this topic before, but I know i must be missing something glaringly obvious and am hoping somebody can point it out. I've been trying to use braillelite's ymodem program and rb and sb in linux. In all cases, the linux end acts like it is waiting to receive or is sending, but the braillelite just sits there with "start transfer" on its display and then finally says "error transfer aborted". I do have interactive and serial port on and brltty killed. Am I incorrect in thinking that "rb" and "sb" can be used in this way or am I missing something else basic? I only use dosemu for two things now--running megadots and doing file transfers. while i am glad dosemu is around under the circumstances, I'd very much like to cut out having to do my transfers through pcdisk on dos or dosemu. I don't see being able to substitute for megadots in the near future, but this would be one less need to use dos and would save me a little bit of time. Thanks for any suggestions; I know this is an old topic but i keep hoping somebody will come up with what I'm failing to do here. -- Cheryl "Where your treasure is, there will your heart be also." _______________________________________________ Blinux-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/blinux-list
