File Conversion and Transfer from a Lanier No Problem Word Processor to a Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Distributed Minicomputer System (DMINS)

Abstract

This document is about conversion and transfer of text files from a certain brand of standalone word processors to a certain minicomputer system. It describes the method used an implementation of the method, and procedures for operators of the implementation. The word processor is a Lanier No Problem. The minicomputer is a Gould 9050. In it the Q-One word processor (part of Quadratrons's Q-Office) runs under the UTX/32 operating system (a port of Berkeley Unix 4.2). IBM compatible personal computers, the Navy Document Interchange Format, and the Kermit file transfer protocol are used as intermediaries.
