Are you the sysop of a Commodore BBS ? If you are, I am interested in starting a network, and would like you to become part of it. I have not designed the system as of yet, but I would like it to run under C-Net (perhaps modify the G file reader) and also draw up formal file format specs for sysops of systems running different software. It would be nice to log on to a Commodore BBS and see more then the same old local faces !! If you are interested in being part of this, please contact me, and also leave your BBS's phone number, as I like to check other BBS's and if you want to check my system, The Alchemists Guild you can call it at 300/1200 baud 24 hours 7 days a week at (607) 277-7979.. I hope to see ya all on line real soon !! Matthew Kleinmann AKA Alan Arkevein

This has nothing to do with BBS's but I'm posting it as a reply because I'm told the PNEWS command doesn't work on the system I'm using. Anyway, I've been trying to call the udel's computers from my 128, but Ihaven't had much luck in finding a terminal program that will emulate one of the ones supported by udel. I downloaded Lobster term off of Compuserve this morn-ing, (it can emulate a vt100) and logged on, but as soon as I logged on everything became garbled. I messed around with the parity, stop bits, word length, etc to see if it would make a difference, but no matter what I did I couldn't get the characters to come out right after logging on. Any suggestions as to what I can do about this, or what terminal pro- gram I can use? I use Touchterm or cg-term128 to call local boards, but even in ascii mode I can't do much on the udel system because they don't fully emulate any of the terminal types supported.
