This UIC contains files for the TALK program, version V07.00.
This version was modified from version 06.00, from [352,2] on the
Fall '82 tape.

TALK is a terminal emulation program which enables a user on an RSX-11M V3.2
or V4.0 system with the full duplex terminal driver to communicate with a
remote host computer over a single line interface (such as a DLV11 or DL11).
This version also allows the use of any terminal interface (such as a DZ11)
when the line is set to 300 baud.  The program begins in terminal mode, and
has the capability of bi-directional file transfers.  See the documentation
and program source for details.
 
NOTES.DOC also contains instructions for building TALK.

The latest version includes some optimizations in the local terminal output,
but the main addition was the binary transfer mode for RSX-11M systems.  A
companion program, MOV, is used in the remote system to convert and transfer
a file block by block, resulting in an identical copy.  The binary transfer
mode is selected as an assembly option in TALKSYS.MAC.  The MOV program must
be copied to the remote system (perhaps using a non-binary version of TALK),
assembled, and installed as the MOV command.

The very extensive documentation file, TALK.DOC, has not been updated to
reflect the latest changes.
 
Kindly send notice of any changes you make to the program to:
