  • Feature desire: client side Freq support

    From Underminer@21:4/103 to FSXNet.FSX_MYS on Wed May 26 18:06:08 2021
    Anyone compiling and/or forwarding feature requests, I would love to see fidopoll/mis poll support freq requests as a client.

    Currently throwing a .req file in a filebox sends properly and initiates a freq send from the host, but poll closes the connection before receiving.

    That would be nice, server side also. I think it is on his todo list, somewhere.

    He is active in the fido MYSTIC area, so you could ask him about that there. I think a lot of folks could make good use of that.

    Full support would be wonderful, but the server side is definitely a non trivial amount of work. The client side just needs to allow the session to stay open and receive the file :)

    I might stick my head over there and post in then.
