Thanks in advance. > Rich Thomson Just a general note to the newcomers...the majority of the communication programs that I've seen posted to the net (and I've not seen all *that* many) do *not* avail themselves of the terminal emulation capabilities that the Amiga provides. I understand that some of the *newer* versions of AmigaTerm (aka ATerm) *do* but I cannot vouch for this. The versions of StarTerm, PDTerm, AmigaTerm and ArgoTerm that I have *do not*. At the moment I use MyCLI in terminal mode and it seems to work well enough. The Amiga will do the majority of the standard ansi terminal including inverse video, bold, italic and invisible. I posted a usable SYSV terminfo recently and, if there is sufficient interest, I will be happy to repost it. -- Tony Sumrall ...!{ihnp4,hplabs,seismo,sun}!amdahl!acs [ Opinions expressed herein are the author's and should not be construed to reflect the views of Amdahl Corp. ]
