diff --git a/ham/7plus/README b/ham/7plus/README new file mode 100644 index 0000000000..dd18c8ddaa --- /dev/null +++ b/ham/7plus/README @@ -0,0 +1,13 @@ +7PLUS is an encoder vaguely similar to Unix's UUENCODE. +It uses a very effective radix216 encoding and incorporates +diverse mechanisms to ensure decoded data is not corrupted. +It also includes an interactive repair mechanism which allows +the repair of damaged files using correction files, thus +eliminating the need to retransmit entire files. In case of +a corruption, only the faulty sections are resent. 7PLUS +is only meant to be used within the Packet Radio network +for the tranport of binary data through Packet Radio mail. +It cannot be used for Internet eMail since it needs a +(almost) transparent path from end to end. + +This will not build on x86_84, patches welcome. |
