Now that I think I've mastered Xmodem, I'm looking for a terminal program for
my 128 that's much better than what I got with my 1670 modem. I need a
VT100/102/220 (anyone of these) terminal emulator, preferably with kermit
protocol, but I'll settle for Xmodem. It must operate at 1200 baud and 9600
baud. (Well, 9600 baud would be EXTREMELY nice, but not absolutely necessary.)
If someone could point out where such a program might exist and where the
dearchiving program (if one is needed) also is located.
Thanks for any help that can be rendered,

Kermit 2.2 will fill your needs. It is a C64 program, but if you run it in 64 mode on a C128, it will recognize this and use 2 MHz and 80-column output. It has VT100 emulation and Kermit protocol. However, it has little else in the way of features, such as no capture buffer, no dialing directory, etc. -- David DeSimone, aka "Fuzzy Fox" on some networks. /!/!

It has good emulation for the ones you listed. It will go 2400, but I'm not sure about 9600. It will also take advantage of your 64k video chip if installed. This will take your buffer from 60k to about 124k (nice improvement :) Keith

How do you get it to take advantage of the 64k video chip? Thanks, Alan

While it runs from a RAMLink at lightening speed (boots in one second, e.g.) its buffer is still 60k. ------------- Howard Herman INET: 72560.3467@CompuServe.COM

I've had alot of problems with BobsTerm - I really don't like its VT100 emulation at all - from what I've seen, the best available is definitely DESTERM - so spring for the $25 bucks for the shareware registration and get it - my fee is in the mail.... - Gordon -- Gordon Lloyd Goldberg <ggold@rpi.edu> "mens agitat molem" <userGACN@rpitsmts.BITNET> <The_Flamemaster@mts.rpi.edu>

When we use BTP on it, he gets the extra 64k video memory used as additional buffer space. Don't ask me how to access it, as it uses it automatically on his 128D (64k RAM video memory chip).

Was a custom hack done to BTP to let it access the extra RAM? If this is a standard feature of the current version being sold, can you tell me where I can get it.
