[comp.sys.apple2] GSVT

awg0971@ritvax.isc.rit.edu (King Lerch) (04/01/91)

I've been using GSVT for a little while now and it's REALLY cool. I don't know
if the guy who wrote this is reading this or not. It COULD use some work as far
as different options etc. Mabye I have an old version (1.45) Does anyone know
of a later version. Or possibly another GS/OS terminal program?

There's Snowterm2.06 which is quite nice, and Agate069 which will handle
ANSI,vt100 graphics and has zmodem( it's not a GS/OS program, but Snowterm
is).

I have a ROM03, and tried running ver1.45 of GSVT. It just hangs. The 4010
tek emulation seems tempting. Will it actually generate tek graphics on the
screen? Also, is there a version which runs on a ROM03? I believe 1.45 was
a 1989 vintage.

Since we're posting GSVT requests-- if the author is out there reading,
I'd really appreciate a modification that would allow a null modem 
driver.  I have an Ericsson TAU 2620, 9600 baud which is supposed to 
be Hayes compatible but often loses data when I use the "Hayes 
compatible" selection on terminal programs (such as GSVT).  
Null modem works fine.

If this modification is made I will gladly make a much-o bucks
contribution for the program.

I would not get Agate other then to just "see" what it does, (not much) it
is interesting to see a double hires communications program and I think it
might be a nice program for us 8 bit apple people but it's not complete it
doesn't really work.

At least Agate069 has a "correct" version of zmodem that works. It certainly
is not the answer for GS users( that will have to wait a bit), but can you
indicate another program which handles ANSI, vt100, and zmodem/ymodem?
 
I am more interested in another GS/OS program that has a lot of promise for
the GS community, as well as GSVT's alledged tek4010 emulation.
