[alt.sources] Athena Systems BBS Back On The Air

markd@crash.cts.com (Mark Divecchio) (10/04/89)

My BBS, setup for the distribution of PC-VT and LPTx, has been down
with modem problems for the past month. It is now back up and alive
with a USR 9600 HST to answer at 1200, 2400, and 9600 baud. You
can call and download PC-VT v9.0d and LPTx v7.00.

PC-VT is VT100/102 Terminal Emulator for the PC and PC Clones. It
emulates 99% of the functions of the VT10x series terminals. Works
great talking to VMS or UNIX hosts.

LPTx is a printer redirection program which takes output destined for
the line printer and puts it into a disk file. Good for capturing output
of programs which do not give a print to disk option. Complete sources
for LPTx are also available on the board (MASM).

ZCOMM handles as many lines and columns as you can set your display
adapter to.  If the display adapter's BIOS supports switching to
132 columns, ZCOMM can use it.

ZCOMM is available for downloading from TeleGodzilla "and
other finer bulletin boards".

Basically ditto for my RBcomm (25/35/43/50/60 lines by however many columns 
you want).  When running under DESQview, it supports virtual screens of any
size, even ones larger than the physical screen.  Available as RBCOMM28.ARC in
PD1:<MSDOS.MODEM> on SIMTEL20, or in /afs/cs/user/ralf/pub on CS.CMU.EDU.
