Lines: 23 I have an atari 800xl and a rs232 modem which I recently bought. I am trying to find the *right* communications package to use with this set-up. In my humble opinion it should be able to emulate a dec with 80 columns, it should also be able to handle my modem without me having to write any new handlers. I have been considering the omnicom, but I would prefer the true 80 column board, atari came out with, if there is suitable software for it. I dont have much experience with the atari and in such dont even know how to connect the modem yet. I would greatly appreciate any help or recomendations. -- ----------\ ___ / \ /__ | /|/| C/O Melnik@Topaz.Rutgers.Edu | | // || /_ | Rutgers!Topaz!Melnik / | ||__// //!/|| / \ \___/ FER // ||ELNIK /--\ -= \ _ \ If you would be powerful, pretend to be powerful.
