[comp.sys.apple] SnowTerm posting

jsnow@esunix.UUCP (John Snow) (05/19/89)

Last week I posted SnowTerm version 1.00 to comp.binaries.apple2.  Our
UNIX node has been up and down a lot lately and I was wondering if anyone
out there got SnowTerm.

SnowTerm is a new VT100 emulator for the IIGS.  It runs in SHR graphics
mode and does a fairly complete job of emulating the VT100.  It does
bold, blink, underline, and reverse character attributes, double wide
and double high characters, and the special graphics character set.

If anyone has received SnowTerm and tried it, I would be interested in
your feedback about the program.

     I'm very interested in SnowTerm, specifically the graphics capabilities
for Vt-100 emulation.  There's only one major problem, I own an internal
modem in this beast.  The problem being that SCCs are a bit different than
RS-232.  A bit.
     The only other problem I could possibly have is protocol capabilities.
I don't really need macros, but I need kermit or Xmodem, preferrably Kermit or
both.  I don't mean to demand you to do it, but that's my major concern.  I'd
really like SnowTerm otherwise, and would quite probably pay a shareware
fee, regardless of (a reasonable) amount.  FreeTerm never followed up on
internal modems, so I've always been text-based.
     I would have DLed it if it weren't for the SCC limitation.  I, for one,
am definately interested.

TO KEN... ABOUT SNOWTERM..

You might give GSVT a try. I d/loaded SnowTerm too and as you stated might
even pay the shareware fee if it had d/load capabilities. GSVT is on AppleLink
and is a graphics term program and it does very well. The only drawback is that
you can only do xmodem.
