C-Net/FTN and BinkD

From Rug Rat@1:135/250 to All on Tue Jun 10 00:31:07 2025

As the work on getting C-Net/FTN and BinkD is drawing to a close.

I have learned a HECK of a lot!

Bucko has been such a big help, even though I went quite a bit off script on this one!

- I have BinkD and C-Net working within a single folder configured as a hard drive on WINAUE! No need for a second set of directories and a script to transfer files between the Amiga and Windows!

* I almost thought it was a lost cause, and was going to concede to Bucko that I should do it the way K-Guide and him came up with. I happened to ask ONE last question regarding why a Windows path was in the ALT Path in the TOSS config. That provided the final piece to the puzzle and decided to to put the path in for the <DRIVE LETTER>:/OUTBOUND folder. VIOLA!! Binkd was able to find the outbound.CLO file...

As soon as I get everything setup, and recover from the trauma induced by this, I will create some really retailed instructions on how to do this. Not knocking what came before. I feel that more detail on the steps and WHY you do what you can be provided! I will also have a LESSONS LEARNED section. So if you run into the pitfalls that I did you will know what to do to correct them!
