Around the same ear I had my mobile packet rig setup - A 73 Toyota Corolla with a Yaesu Memoriser, and TAPR TNC2, and a Model 100. I remember leaning over at the traffic lights one afternoon, typing "Not now Kevin, I'm driving" Those were the days before people had mobile phones and we could tou

[M100] Answer Found to Teeny/Laddiealpha not loading files

To clarify my remarks "TS-DOS (and probably TEENY) if you try to inload an untokenized BASIC program *with a .BA extension* will crash the Model 100's file system. So what LaddieAlpha does when it sees *a untokenized file with* BA extension it is presented to the TPDD client as a .DO extension."

"Laddie however will transparently convert files like this on the fly, which is convenient when you know about it, but creates confusion exactly like you experienced when you don't know about it." As I've said Laddie is more of a file transfer service/tool than an attempt at a high fidelity "TPDD
