    RS 232 Software Communication Need

    I need simple RS 232 software to upload and download programs from machine tools. Tried Dockloght, EVMsoft, Windmill and don't like. Thanks

    I have always used Qmodem, I believe you can still get a copy free.
    Otherwise try and get a copy of Terminal that came with Win3.1 it is far more friendly than Hyperterminal.
    For something aimed more specifically for the purpose, Cadem.

    Can it drip feed as well? I guess not, had to ask anyway?

    I don't see why not, the PC does not know you are drip feeding, it just obeys either software or hardware handshake commands to send or pause.
