Subject: Terminal Emulator/Arcade Problems
Hi
I've been having some fun with my Master connected to my linux server
via serial ports, so I can use it a bit more than just playing games,
however I have hit a couple of problems. I've been using the built in
Terminal on the beeb end, is there a better terminal emulator ?
I've tried Termulator 1.0 (c) Sussex Uni and LPDFS 7.48 (c) Preston poly
aswell but neither are much better than the buit in one.
When I telnet to Arcade.demon.co.uk it doesn't matter what I set my
terminal type to at Arcade, or what type of terminal I tell the beeb to
be I get some gibberish on the screen ?
When I use vi on my liux box the delete key doesn't work (it just beeps
at me), although I can scroll around and enter text and esc back to the
command input bit as normal, but when I'm at Bash command line it does
work ?
All help much appreciated
Cheers Wookie.
