EasyTerm Support in BPQ32/LinBPQ

Introduction

EasyTerm is a packet client program, originally written to work with UZ7HO's Soundmodem (see UZ7HOS's site for download link).

Configuration

EasyTerm uses the AGWPE emulation interface in BPQ. Add something like the following to your bpq32.cfg. Then set Easyterm to connect to port 8001 on your LinBPQ machine.

AGWPORT=8001 (or any unused port)
AGWMASK=0x30
AGWSESSIONS=2

You only need AGWMASK if you want BPQ users to be able connect to EasyTerm. I have

APPLICATION 5,EASY,,GM8BPQ-12
APPLICATION 6,EASYMB,,GM8BPQ-14

This allows users to connect to the terminal or mailbox. I've set the same calls in the Easyterm setup.

Operation

You can connect to the bpq switch by entering SWITCH in EasyTerm's CallTo field. Once connected to the switch you can use any of your BPQ ports to make calls

BPQ Mail supports YAPP transfers to or from Easyterm
