Help! A friend of mine is looking for a public domain, or low lost terminal
program to run on his IIc. His main use would be to dial into the CMS system
here at Rice. The Visual 200 terminals we normally use to access CMS emulate
IBM 3270s (I think) so it would be nice if the program could do this. We might
be able to hack something up on our own if the program was in basic, though.
Another problem is how to get the program onto the IIc. Obviously, if the
program is commercial he can buy it and run it unmodified. If the program is in
BASIC, somebody could mail me the source on CMS and we could print it, then
type it into the IIc. If it's a binary file there could be a problem. I can use
FTP to download stuff to the a Mac, but getting it to the IIc becomes a sort of
a problem.
Anyway, anybody got any info? Please e-mail responses to me as I read this
group on an irregular basis.
Thanks,
