Disk No: 1371 Program Title: QUICKTRAN PC-SIG version 1 QUICKTRAN is a telecommunications file-transfer program which compresses files as they are sent across phone lines for saving in time and cost. In standard file transfer protocols (like Xmodem), the computer spends a great deal of time waiting to send or receive data. QUICKTRAN puts this time to use, compressing and decompressing data as it comes in or goes out. A comparison of QUICKTRAN to Xmodem demonstrated that QUICKTRAN is, on the average, almost twice as fast. The program is fully documented, easy to install and use. A copy is required by both the sending and receiving computer. Synopsis: Telecommunications program that compresses files before transmission resulting in a savings of both time and phone bills. Usage: Telecommunications. Special Requirements: Hayes compatible modem. How to Start: Type GO (press enter). Suggested Registration: $19.95 File Descriptions: QT EXE Main program.
