P.P.S. Please ignore my silly “markdown” typesetting. I really need to install the markdown-here <https://markdown-here.com/> extension. What I meant to say was, to bootstrap a binary transfer program to your T200, just run:|dlplus -b DSKMGR.200 | On Thu, Dec 8, 2022 at 12:04 PM B 9 <hacke...@gmail.com> wrote: The frozen thing is common for me with TELCOM as well when I remove the serial cable. I don't know if that's a Tandy 200 thing or if it affects the Model 100 as well. I presume it has something to do with Carrier Detect, or the like. The solution is to hit Shift-Break then F8. Every time you hit Shift-Break, TELCOM seems to process one character before it gets stuck waiting again for CD, so you might have to hit it repeatedly. I have heard that John Hogerhuis's HTERM is the consensus best terminal, but I have not used it yet. For file transfers, I use dlplus <https://github.com/bkw777/dlplus> (also originally written by John Hogerhuis, but I believe it is now maintained by Brian White). Dlplus is nicer than xmodem because it acts like a drive. It also has a nifty bootstrap mode <https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H0xx9cOe97s> that gets a binary transfer program onto your T200. Just run this on your host side and follow the prompts: ```bash dlplus -b |DSKMGR.200| ``` If you are connecting to a UNIX box via TELCOM, I humbly suggest giving my Tandy Terminfo <https://github.com/hackerb9/Tandy-Terminfo/> a try. --b9 P.S. There are other options than DSKMGR.200 if you find it takes too much space. Use `dlplus -l` to see them.

Maybe part of a ROM ? Specifically, something that would support xmodem or make file exchanges easier ? Also maybe easier settings than "stat" :) I also often find myself with the M200 "frozen" when doing serial communication (cannot F8 anymore, need to RESET), like if I hangup on one side, the receiving M200 is frozen. Am I doing something wrong ? Thanks !
