KTRANS:            Tony Keane, 1984
CTRANS Adaptation: Jim Lill, 11/85

Purpose: Hi-Speed Inter-Computer Transfer Program     

Application: KTRANS, Kaypro and Bigboard Computers
             CTRANS, any CP/M computer whose BIOS supports PUN: and RDR:

KTRANS.... used in the Kaypro or Bigboard. Baud rate can be set to match the
remote unit using BAUDM as supplied by Kaypro. Speeds up to 19.2K have been
used successfully.

CTRANS.... used in any CP/M computer with PUN: and RDR: support. Baud rate
must be either a default, hardware selected or via software control provided
by the user.

In each case, Run instructions are provided when the program is run.

Protocol Description: almost any type of file can be transferred. Codes below
20 and above 7F are transferred as double-bytes using three special signalling
codes (11H, 12H, 13H). This allows for the fastest transfer for most files
including object code since double-bytes are only necessary for out-of-range
codes. The data is sent without error-checking, in 128 Byte blocks. Having
no Error Checking, CTRANS and KTRANS are intended for local hard-wire duty.
High baud rates will provide a quick transfer that can APPROACH DISK-to-DISK
SPEEDS in some cases.
