                      -= Portal of Power: FAQ =-

  Q: Will there be a version for Windows, Mac, Amiga, ZX81, Linux etc.
  A: PoP is written in Borland Pascal 7.0 and makes heavy use of a
commercial library called Object Professional (lots of low level
screen management routines etc.). So to port it to other platforms,
the following must must be available on that platform: a) a BP 7
compatible compiler b) a port of Object Professional And until now
Virtual Pascal/2 is the only product that has these two things. Still
the communication routines (and a few other things) will probably need
to be rewritten too... this requires that one of the Portal Team has
that platform available and feel the need to have PoP ported.

  Q: Will I have to send new postcards when the next version is
released?
  A: NO - once you have sent the postcards you are registered for ALL
future versions.

  Q: How do I send an 'AT+FCLASS=2.0' to my modem (only for pre
v0.63)?
  A: Rainer Haemmerle has created a patch (NOT tried by The Portal
Team) - so make a backup of PORTAL.OVR first! But anyway thanks to
Rainer. The following text is from the original message from Rainer:

     ...........
     PoP replaces the "." in +FCLASS=2.0 with a ",". So I had to patch
the portal.ovr a little bit (sorry to Portal Team!) so it now replaces
a "," with a "," :-) So load the portal.ovr with a diskeditor, search
the hex-string EB 3E 3C 2E 75 09 and replace it with EB 3E 3C 2C 75 09
(a 2C instead of 2E).

     Things should work fine now!

team posted... Soren Ager.
