    Hi all,

    what is the status of the amiga port of Binkd? Useable? Zimmermanns
    hack (AmiBinkD) is more or less unuseable and his source code isn't available anywhere that I can find so fixing his bugs in v9.04 (the
    last one I think) is impossible it seems.

    it was coded in ASM, so he did his best with it, and no source, its like irex, no more updates there, so if there would be one of them implement binkp or even
    emsi into a tcp frontend it would be nice move

    on amiga i would keep telser.device handy for emsi connects

    or find a node that could deliver to ftp accounts or email

    irex can this

    He is still around (2:292/140), so you could try and ask him. But I don't know how active he is. And I think he sold his Amiga, so he
    can't fix anything.

    cross compile it on a blackbarry then ? :=)

    But there are still nodes out there that carry the IFC flag. In fact
    I'm working to get ifcico running as well exactly for that purpose to connect with TrapDoor from my Amiga.

    i have hoped for emsi support in binkp aswell, so i can drop expansive modems :=)

    SCSI drives. Maybe with some good talking to him we can persuade Mirko
    to work on a binkd implementation in GMS and then release as
    opensource. Or other way around... Who knows... ;-)

    that would be nice for UAE on android/chromebooks :)
