Mac To Mac Slip Scripts

This is something I hacked up for a friend, who wanted to do CU-SEE ME over a plain telephone connection. That is, not having to connect to an internet provider, and definitely NOT using Apple Remote access, which would mean loading lots of resources, and taking extra useful RAM. (Which could be useful for running CU-SEE ME, or any other TCP/IP application). My friend had no idea about scripting, and I did, so I found a great solution. What this will do for you, is establish an authentic TCP/IP connection betwwen 2 macs, using a regular telephone connection, so that you can use all your typical TCP/IP software. I can't think of anything REALLY cool to do with this, except for CU-SEE ME. This will only work at acceptable speeds using a 28.8 bps modem. I have heard lots of people wanting a macintosh SLIP host. This will almost do that for you but obviously only 1 connection at a time will be accepted. I have no relation to Hyde Park Software. In fact, I don't even use MacSLIP. It seems to be that something like this cannot be done with InterSLIP due to it's lack of scripting facilities. If you think it can be done, e-mail me. I am the author of these scripts and I think they are pretty ingenious. All I ask if you use them, is to e-mail me and tell me if you liked them, or even send me a postcard (yeah, I have one already, but keep them coming!) Also, tell me if you find any other uses for it, apart from videoconferencing. Feel free to distribute these scripts, but include the READ ME file. Do not distibute modified versions. I want to get feedback on bugs and problems, and keep an updated version on the archives. Do NOT include on CD ROMS without my consent. Again: My e-mail is: cviola@zeus.ucab.edu.ve
