[nos-bbs] B2F and Winlink LZW parameters - that's the only challenge ...

[Maiko Langelaar (ve4klm)]

Well,

It turns out that the existing JNOS forwarding code will work very well
with the B2F (for starters anyway). The challeng that I'm running into is
actually figuring out what the LZW parameters (code size, etc) are that
is used by WinLink.

If anyone has connections or knows this off the top of their head, I
would be very gratefull.

I was successfully able to have a B2F forward done to JNOS, however 
because the LZW parameters on the JNOS size are not appropriate to the
WinLink software, the resulting outfile was a HUGE file of useless
information. Input = 121 bytes, Output = 8.4 Mega bytes. This *email*
even got delivered to my mailbox, but it was binary gibberish.

So there you go - the lastest status and a request for help.
