TCHAT

TCHAT

is a simplified version of

TSIPCHAT

.

TCHAT.C

provides a good

basis for GPS software development.

The command line syntax is:

TCHAT

-c[port number] -f<optional file name>

where <optional file name> is the name where bytes received directly from
the receiver will be collected.

Full source code is provided. Unlike

TSIPCHAT

TCHAT

can be compiled

under both Microsoft and Borland Compilers. It uses the same source code
modules as

TSIPCHAT

. The following modules comprise

TCHAT

:

TCHAT.C

(main)

TSIP_RPT.C

TSIP_IFC.C

SERIAL.C

Software flow follows the same as

TSIPCHAT

, except that the display and

user interface has been greatly simplified. It is recommended that software
developer’s become familiar with

TCHAT

before studying the source code

to

TSIPCHAT

.
