  • Terminal/Modem Emulators

    From The Dark Rider@VERT/DUNDER to All on Wed Aug 29 19:00:06 2012
    Hello all, so I recently got back into BBSing about two weeks or so ago. Right now, I'm running Telix in a DOSBox window with the modem emulator enabled. However, I feel like this is probably not the most optimal setup for some reason (probably because I'm using the same software I used to call dialup BBSes in like 1995, haha). I went looking for both a good Windows terminal emulator (but I'll use PuTTY if need be, as I already have it installed) and a Hayes-compatible modem emulator.

    The second bit seems a bit tricky. I have been playing about with TCPSer and a couple of other freeware solutions, but I'm getting nowhere. Windows complains about there not being serial ports, and although I could get TCPSer to bind to a port, and therefore I could use PuTTY as stated above, that won't be ideal for me if I can't support things like ANSI or file transfers (and yes, I do those sometimes on BBSes... there are still things you can't get on a Google search that you can stumble across on a BBS!).

    What do you guys use, and what am I doing wrong?

    Syncterm and Mtelnet both work well. Syncterm is available for Mac, Windows and Linux. Mtelnet is WIndows-only.

    Ahoy,

    What do you guys use, and what am I doing wrong?

    Deuce's SyncTERM is available on multiple platforms. It can do file transfers, renders ANSI properly, and the whole shebang.

    Hey, welcome back to the hobby!

    You could use syncterm:

    http://syncterm.bbsdev.net/

    It's ANSI support isn't perfect (it doesn't work with the text aquarium screen saver on my BBS correctly) but it's good enough for most things, and has a nice retro look to it.

    ...or...

    Just use the Telnet that comes with Windows (in Vista and later you have to add it as a component). It's ANSI support is actually better (the aquarium displays more or less correctly).

    Most folks today use SyncTERM. It's ANSI/cp438 compatible (even
    supports OverkillTerm) and chats over telnet normally.

    http://syncterm.bbsdev.net to fetch it.


    I"ve used com2tcp (the freeware one, not the you gotta pay for thing by someone else) to get older com port based apps to play nice over telnet.
    So if you really want to use Telix or maybe ripterm you could try that.

    I am seeing that name pop up quite a bit on here. I will have to check it out. The other thing that would be nice about using a Windows terminal program is that I could probably cut-and-paste text (like URL's, especially) with it, whereas with anything running under DOSBox, you don't get that ability.

    Yeah but it won't read your modem if you don't have one though.

    Yeah but it won't map it to a TCP port over telnet will it? I knwo it
    can map to another virtual com port or any physical port on the box..
    but don't think you could use it to attach to a telnet BBS.

    Yeah, but you can map telnet to it and use it for IP only. You even dial ATDT <hostname> to connect. :)

    Yeah, I ended up installing it and actually, I am using it right now. It's so much faster! (Probably because I'm not emulating a 57600 bps connection like in DOSBox.)

    I"ve used com2tcp (the freeware one, not the you gotta pay for thing by someone else) to get older com port based apps to play nice over telnet. So if you really want to use Telix or maybe ripterm you could try that.

    I'm sure it's got its uses. I'm thinking of calling com2tcp into service at work, where I have to manage (among many other, much newer things) a Merlin Legend/MAGIX system that was built in like 1996. The management interface is a 1200 bps (though I've gotten it to work at 2400 bps using an old laptop with it) serial connection, translated into an RJ-45 plug. I would love to hook that to a Linux server and share the serial port out as something my Windows workstation would see as an actual, viable serial port of its own. AT&T (oh, sorry, Lucent... oh, sorry, Avaya) only has this crappy old program called WinSPM to manage it. It will work on Win7 x64, but yeah...

    Yes, exactly. It can. You open telix, point it to the re-mapped comm port, type ATDT <hostname or IP address> and it connects. VERY COOL.

    i would rather go with telnetbbsguide's lists. it's actively maintained. diamond dave has syncterm and mt32 lists.

    if you want a program for maintaining/importing/exporting syncterm and mt32 dialing lists check out bbslist.bbses.info and click the link for david rife's converter programs on the bottom.
