Beam-o-matica - Beam-o-matica is simple. It sends and receives text as straight ASCII via the Newton MessagePad's infrared port. Using this utility a person can send and receive ASCII from the Newton to any machine capable of connecting to a Sharp CE-IR2 serial modem at 9600,8,1,N. SENDING TEXT - Hilight the text to be sent and click the "Tx" button. RECEIVING TEXT- Click the "Rx" button. The newton will place any text received via the IR port to where the cursor is currently pointing. To stop receiving click on the "Stop" button. It's that simple. This application is shareware.
