Re: WANTED: Translator from German



Hallo Herb,

thank you for such a kind of reply :-)

I followed your advice and made a quick extract from this discussion
so far in the project space of my website: go to Projekte -> KCNET on
the left side and open the first article in the list - there are now
direct links to some documents.

The subject of networking and CP/M comes up every few years, in my
experience, in comp.os.cpm. So I think your work would be of interest
to English-speakers with CP/M interests.

I know - but up to today all projects will handle this difficult area
in software over a rs232 (most of them so far I know) - this makes no
sense with a 8Bit computer and some MHz.

In my opinion you need a fast common interface (like a parallel PIO)
and a hardware stack to handle all tasks up to UDP/TCP level, like the
WIZnet-Chip(s) - the only chip, wich can do that in the moment.

Then I can play with all of the TCPIP-protocols on basis of the whole
technology - not with the help of other programs on the application
level of the stack, I'm free in programming and can use it in my own
way, must not use a rfc but I think for beginning its better :-)

be hard to find. Consequently, Susowa, your site may be one of a few
Web resources still available on the subject.
No - this is my personal project-site for he KC85 Stuff of about 20
years since the last year, not only for CP/M or networking with CP/M -
this is now a very big part, but I think, I will realize my goals with
this interface, then this will change down to a normal level of work.
