        This has nothing to do with BBS's but I'm posting it as a reply because I'm told the PNEWS command doesn't work on the system I'm using.
	Anyway, I've been trying to call the udel's computers from my 128, but Ihaven't had much luck in finding a terminal program that will emulate one of the ones supported by udel.  I downloaded Lobster term off of Compuserve this morn-ing, (it can emulate a vt100) and logged on, but as soon as I logged on everything became garbled.  I messed around with the parity, stop bits, word length, etc to see if it would make a difference, but no matter what I did I couldn't get
the characters to come out right after logging on.
	 Any suggestions as to what I can do about this, or what terminal pro-  gram I can use?   I use Touchterm or cg-term128 to call local boards, but
even in ascii mode I can't do much on the udel system because they don't fully
emulate any of the terminal types supported.
