CompuServe Messages

I have re-read my earlier message. I can see where my point wasn't well made. What I was trying to save a fellow Amigan the hassle of logging in without having garbage at the login prompts. I have many term programs, but I have settled on two for CIS use. (at least in the Amiga world) Terminus because it flips from 7e1 to 8n1. I tried to make a separate statement, not successfully, that I also use Autopilot. I had assumed that AutoPilot used the HMI protocol which would require 8n1. (since HMI is a file transfer) When using an ascii interface it is best to be at 7e1, unless your software can strip the high bit. Remember, I am looking at CompuServe from a broader perspective than the average joe. I know there are a lot of other places to go than CIS at the host name. For example type NETWRK at the host name prompt. I would be betraying my principles if I let someone log in at 8n1 and let the host force them to 7e1. Eric.
