Send all your suggestions for this page to <a href="mailto:perolsen@bergen.mail.telia.com">LA6CU</a>.<br><br>Autobin : A protocole for transfer of binary files via radio-ports.<br> Supported by several terminal-programs.<br><br>DLL : DLL is Dynamic Link Library. This is used in the windows <br> environment and allows a program to attach a library which <br> holds some code during the session or only during a phase of<br> a program (like filters in FBB). This allows a very fast and<br> efficient mechanism. Also DLL may be compact.<br><br>DPMI : Dos Protected Mode Interface.<br> It enables Ms-Dos based applications to access all the <br> extended memory installed in the PC maintaining system <br> protection. DosFBB uses it, so it is not limited to the <br> memory below 1Mb and PG/SERVERS have more that 500Kb of <br> memory to run.<br><br>GPF : Windows error-message. Means that the BBS has performed an <br> action that has caused a General Protection Failure.<br><br>VXD : VXD is more complex. I don't know exactly but they are <br> something like drivers for Windows using 32 bit code.<br><br>YAPP : "Yet Another Packet Program". Originally a program by WA7MBL<br> for simple transfer of binary files on packet radio. The <br> protocol from his program is widely known as the YAPP-protocol.<br><br>Xforward : Another kind of compressed forward, implemented in FBB.<br><br><br><br>
