I agree and find Stfax stable, I have had small problems mostly with
recieving faxes (due to settings) but find Wiz very helpfull if you email
him chris very rarely replies.
I have come to the conclusion the problem is not with Stfax itself but
with the Docs. There is not enough info on setting up Stfax, the main
problem is the init string but how does the average person set it up when
they do not know what to look for eg. does Stfax want RTS/CTS or XON/XOFF
on or off
What S: registers may need changing for different modems.
I know Wiz can not set all the init string for every modem with every
config. of Amiga but a little more help in the docs. to know what to look
for would help the people that do have a problem.
