I recently got a Kaypro, and I need a terminal emulator for it.
Someone kindly pointed me to the files in
SIMTEL20: micro: <cpm>cpm.dirlst
<cpmug>cpmug.crclst
<sigm>sigm.crclst
I found some promising-looking files in micro:<sigm.vol141>
with names like KPROTERM.TXT and KAYMODEM.DOC, but upon reading
them here at MIT (fetched via FTP on my DEC 20) I found gibberish,
not human-legible text.
I've tried transferring files with names like FOO.TXT and FOO.DOC
using ASCII, 8-BIT, and 36-BIT transfer modes, but I keep losing.
So I have three questions:
1) Is there a bootstrap program I can type into my Kaypro to make
loading serious files easier?
2) Is there something I'm doing wrong with fetching stuff from SIMTEL20?
3) Can anyone recommend a terminal emulator program for Kaypros?
(the free ADM3 that comes with Kaypros is too stupid. I'd prefer
emulation of a VT52, Ann Arbor, Heath or other smarter terminal.)
