[Dark Link]

Hi,

I would like to know if there is an AFX program that sends .exe and other files frm one calc to another

Thanks in Advance

I've just realized that GComm will do it, but I can't download it.
It says:
This domain is parked, pending renewal, or has expired.
Please contact the domain provider with questions.
Could anybody please send me GComm, plz???

Here's a French site with GComm:

http://flash100.free.fr

[2072]

Where did you try to download GCOMM? (I'm interested to know which Casio site is disabled)

[Dark Link]

is gcomm in english???

2072: every site hosted in earthforge has gone down

I'm not sure, my version is in French...

The version of GComm at the link above contains these English instructions:

Installation:
Use a software like Flash100, FlashEditor or FlashCom for create a drive which contains "exe".
You must install RFinstal (include) on your AFX2.0 for use FONT.RFI (contains FONT (4*5)).
-Install RFInstal.exe & FONT.RFI in any drive.
-Run RFinstal.exe, choose drive which contains FONT.RFI, select it and press EXE. File 'FONT' is created in system zone.
Now, you can run GComm with FONT 4*5.
If file 'FONT' is not found by GComm, GComm uses the default font. (Casio font (5*7))
