John, there isn't Vidtex software available for the Amiga at the moment. You can use AHost (DL4) to view RLE graphics around CIS – Marlene

Marlene, I use AHost… but it has a lot of bugs.. if it receives Naked packets it goes to never never land. I really like it… are there any upgrades of it . I would like to use it with WB1.2 Chris A.

Chris, the author has said that he plans on upgrading Ahost – but is busy and doesn't know when. Marlene

It won't be updated anytime soon. Steve Wilhite is currently busy on 4-5 other projects that are higher on the priority list.

John, I see you have as the subject of your message VIDTEX so I am presuming you are looking for a full VIDTEX package. I don't know of one at this time, there are however, serveral programs that will handle B-Protocol up/downloads (and B-Protocol is part of Vidtex) so you might want to take at look at one of them. The one I use is OnLine! v2.0. It should be available at any dealer's. Don
