  Save image in pbForth (srec version)
 
Hi Ralph, Finally I got it to work. Now there is XMODEM protocol and S-record writer on top of it. SAVE-SYSTEM word has been redefined to produce S-record image. Although upload time is up to 5 min now, instead I don't spend time anymore to mess (...) (25 years ago, 11-Nov-99, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.pbforth)
