A new 0.4.2 release of D-Rats is now available.
A new installation script for installing on Microsoft Windows using MobaXterm instead of Msys2 has been prepared.
The MobaXterm install has been tested with Windows 7, 10, and 11.
For other platforms it is available both from cloning and or updating a github checkout from .
The pip installable tarball is at
/g/d-rats/files/D-Rats/D-Rats%20ReleasesThis fixes many issues with message and form transfers.
This also fixes an issue where on radio links, D-Rats may randomly drop characters resulting in incomplete communications, failed responses and file transfers. All older versions of D-rats are known to have this bug.
Similar scripts as used for MobaXterm should be possible for other platforms. MobaXterm is compatible with most Linux commands at the command line level, but not 100% compatible with shell scripts for Linux.
