I have created this simpleton web page to allow you to download some of the work I have done in the past. I am releasing this work into the public domain. All the of the code is old (11+ years), but all source code is included with all projects being offered.  If nothing else,  hopefully this code will be of some use to programmers that who would desire to understand older telephonic communication technologies, bare bones low-level commmuication handling and communication protocols of the yesteryear.


PowerTerm:

     PowerTerm is a MSDOS based communications program that I developed in the early 1990's that was used mainly to communicate with systems that I needed to.  At the time, this included various Bulletin Board Systems (BBS) that were hosted worldwide and some particular mainframe systems I was currently working on and some that I have worked on in the past (Honeywell Level 6, IBM 9221's etc.)

     PowerTerm supports most of the popular (at the time anyway) terminal emulation's such as; vt52, vt100, vt102, ansi, avatar, Tek4107c and Vip7801.  PowerTerm also contains most of the popular file transfer protocols like; xmodem-checksum, xmodem-crc, ymodem, ymodem-1k, ymodem-g, zmodem and kermit.

       Even though this pr00gie may be old and may run well (port contention issues) on WIN32 based systems (again no guarantees, build an MSDOS system, you should be ok.), I am not going to provide support for PowerTerm. You have the source, you find something wrong, you fix it!  An old Army buddy of mine helped with certain parts of this code, mainly (SIGALRM) hacks, etc.

Oh, yeah... this probably isn't documented anyplace (last thing anyone does right?) but you'll need to set an environment variable, e.g.  POWERTERM=[full path to wherever you unzipped this stuff to] so that PT knows where to find stuff.

That's about it... you are on your own from here.

Please leave feedback. if you'd like.  Responses are not gauranteed.


PapaSmurf:

A WIN32 port I did a while back (while sitting around bored) of the old unix source papasmurf DoS exploit.   This exploit is probably pretty much ineffective these days, but could serve well in an educational or demonstration environment where you'd want to demonstrate this type of exploit to your audiance.

My non-support policy applies with this code as well.

WIN32 based War-Dialer:

This is a win32 based War-Dialer called Kalimba I worked on some years ago.  Included Blue Box capabilities, such as 0 - 9 dialing, quarter, dime, nickel tones, Operator tones, conference capabilities.  Not like that will work these days.  Lots of other features included.

All the source code is included with this program.  This code is being released for educational purposes only.  Any other use of this software is the total responsibility of the person(s) using it.

My non-support policy applies with this code as well.

Have fun,
