Platoterm on the Spectrum Next

Open simulant-systems opened this issue 4 years ago • 5 comments

Hi I just wondered if you could release a version that you can set the baud on or runs at 115200 so it can be used on the Spectrum Next please?

Thanks for any help

Hi. will need to do some digging into the RS232 routines to see what I would need to add to them to do that. I'm using z88dk's RS232 routines as is (almost) -Thom

Hi thanks that would be fantastic. I run a humble Amstrad BBS which also has Spectrum boards and chat rooms etc on there, so it would be fantastic as a Spectrum Next owner to be able to connect to the BBS on the Spectrum and use the BBS :)

BBS info is here: http://amstrad.simulant.uk

PLATOTERM is a terminal program specifically for PLATO hosts. It is not a standard terminal program. Please watch the demo videos.

Sorry for the misunderstanding - are there any plans to add other terminal emulator modes for standard BBS 1200/1200 baud ascii/ansi etc? Thanks again

Hi again a user on the Spectrum boards of my Amstrad BBS has just informed me about SnapCTerm https://github.com/thweasel/snapCterm which he says works well for ANSI BBS users. I'll post there also just to ask if they may be willing to add the Spectrum Next wifi esp as an option for connecting with SnapCTerm. Thanks again.
