Amiga Terminal Program
Bill,
Excellent ideas! By the way, even after purchasing a number of popular
term programs for the Mac, I find FreeTerm to be more reliable (and more
convenient) for the time I spend on CIS. <Thanks!> A couple of comments on
your proposal: it'd be nice if the "AmigaBinary" standard conformed to the
<yet-to-be-disclosed> IFF specifications. (MaxiSoft has a structure defined
for passing workbench-related .INFO for a file within their MaxiComm program,
altho I don't know what it looks like.) Also, the BASIC "bootstrap" should
probably be written in AmigaBasic (aka MS-Basic) as ABasiC will soon be taking
an extended holiday in England…
If you'd like to setup a CO to discuss some of these issues I'm sure
you'll get a _variety_ of good ideas. Let me know if I can help.
