faxin.c

compile, link with logfile.o, faxlib.o, faxrec.o and you have a standalone
fax receiver that could be called upon receipt of "+FCON" from any getty
or login program.
Options: "-x <debug>", "-d <receive_to_directory>"

Make: just go to the mgetty directory, call "make contrib-all"

scrts.c

A small tool for linux (only), to set the CRTSCTS hardware handshake
flag. Compile it with "cc -o scrts scrts.c", use it with "scrts <device>"

It will (if possible) open the port in non-blocking mode (you need this
if "stty crtscts </dev/ttyS..." hangs), and set the CRTSCTS flag. If
something goes wrong, it will print an error message.

pbmscale.c

Subject: Re: FAX software to run under SCO ????
[...]

To improve the speed of handling faxes I made a simple pbmscale program to
scale portable bitmaps without converting them to graymaps. I'll include the
source in this mail. To use it with pbmplus you only need some trivial
changes in pbmmerge.c an Makefile.

Typical usage:

cat faxn... |g3topbm|pbmscale -scale 0.35 -aspect 2.0| pnmtoxdm |xdum

or

cat faxn... |g3topbm|pbmscale -scale 1.35 -aspect 2.0| pbmtolj | lp -d hpdeskjet

[...]

>Do you have some explantation of all the switches?

pbmscale [-scale N] [-aspect N] [-stretch] [pbmfile]";
   -scale N Scale x and y by factor N, eg. -scale 1.35
   -aspect N, N is multiplier for the y scale factor eg. -aspect 1.9
   -stretch equivalent with -aspect 2.0
   So the resulting bitmap is <scale>*x by <scale>*<aspect>*y dots.

Chel
