#39 byte "0xFF" gets sent twice
I am using RealTerm to send small amounts of binary data to a TCP server I've set up on my host. Everything works well expect for when I try to send 0xFF as one of the bytes.
In the "Send" tab, if I type in "255" and hit "Send Numbers", my server receives two bytes of hex value 0xFF instead of one. This appears to be a bug unless 0xFF is some reserved byte code.
in the latest version (2.0.0.70) this bug is still present!
how can i contribute to fix this bug?
This is not a bug.
In Telnet mode, FF is an escape code.
So your receiver is using RAW mode, while you have Realterm set to TELNET mode.
Change "Winsock Is" (on port tab) to RAW
