Output of file : READTHIS.NOW contained in archive : QBCOMM11.ZIP

Note: The READ.ME file is basically incorrect as of this writing.
Dave Cleary created the QuickCOM library, upgraded it to version 1.1
(which is what this is) and then discovered that there is already
a communications package out by the same name.

Since good communications packages are hard to find for QuickBASIC,
I asked Dave if he would mind if I reworked the documentation and so
forth such that it reflects a different name (QBCOMM). See the
file OKBYDAVE for his reply (obviously, yes).

Feel free to verify that this change is legal (you would be smart in
doing so, actually). He can be reached on the Fido QUIK_BAS echo for
such questions.

  1. Very nice! Thank you for this wonderful archive. I wonder why I found it only now. Long live the BBS file archives!

  2. This is so awesome! 😀 I’d be cool if you could download an entire archive of this at once, though.

  3. But one thing that puzzles me is the “mtswslnkmcjklsdlsbdmMICROSOFT” string. There is an article about it here. It is definitely worth a read: http://www.os2museum.com/wp/mtswslnk/
