Perfect time for me to say "I told you so" but I won't. All someone has
to do is take the existing vmodem patch and place it in the offical
release. It looks like it works okay and I know a lot of people have been
using it before. I don't recall if I made any changes other then whats in
the patch. I did look around for an easy way to make it have more nodes,
but I don't know the layout of dosemu well enough to figure that out and
it's not that important right now. The vmodem patch should be found at or
about: ftp://bbs.ipass.net/pub/dosemu/vmodem-patch-0.66.7.tgz. It could
be someone else wrote an offical patch for this, that they have laying
around, that never got tossed in. I hope that person steps forward if
they do have it.
