From COMPUTE! May 1985.
The terminal program PLUS/TERM for VIC and C64 from Feburary 1985
issue has a few bugs. The program was unable to select word sizes
of five or six bits, and the parity menu was not properly supported.
Here's the fix:
Make the following changes.
420 POKE 659,(PEEK(659) AND 159) OR ((VAL(MA$)-1)*32)
800 ON VAL(MD$) GOTO 805, 810, 820, 830, 840
805 POKE 660, PEEK(660) AND 31 : GOTO 850

In the mean time a few questions: 1. At the moment, all I have is a VIC with cassette. Would this configuration with PLUS/TERM be useable enough to be worth typing in the program? 2. Is it safe to assume that PLUS/TERM does nothing to remedy the ridiculous 22 character screen width? 3. Has anyone a termcap entry for this combination? Is there any hope of running vi with it? (GAWD! can you imagine a 22 ch by 23 line screen? Oh well...) (Even a water logged log is hope to a drowning...) Thanks for any help.
