I'd like to know what utilities are in use these days for doing remote
comms. Do you have any custom code you're proud of? Please specify
source and target platforms (AP/PRO or AP/Unix to Unix, AS400, ?),
method of comm (serial, tcp/ip, IR, radio), capabilities (remote
login, xmodem, kermit), and tools used (sockets, telnet, rlogin, ftp,
cu). Is it user friendly? programmer hostile? Any cool applications
for the code (satellite, EDI, e-mail, imaging). The more details the
better, including purchase information if available.
I find that more people are using Pick for some very cool applications
and I think it would be interesting for all of us to find out more
about what everybody is doing. Here at Pick, we try to help people
use the existing tools to build these applications, but it would be
nice to have some input from the field. This might also make apparent
a need for something new.
A recent request from Asia was for satellite comms - who does this?
TIA
