Msg 42114 is 11 line(s) on 07/18/89 from JOHN O'HARA to PAUL STREETER re: R/RECRUITER BBS I selected VT100 for two reasons. 1) the system is a VAX and VT100 was DEC's native terminal for that machine. 2) the vast majority of communications programs support VT100 emulation. By using a terminal protocol like VT100, I could then write the system to be completely menu-driven{and take advantage of the emulation's advanced video abilities. . In addition, the first menu you receive is OK for TTY. No special escape sequences are sent until after the opening screen. If you were having problems at that pointf* I'd suspect line noise. What type of machine do you use? Msg 42115 is 07 line(s) on 07/18/89 from COLIN SCHROEDER to ALL re: 386-16 FOR SALE if anyone is interested, I'm considering selling an ALR 386/16 with 387, 43Mb Miniscribe HD, 2meg RAM, and real Hercules mono. It's about 1 1/2 yr old and in perfect shape; the only reason for selling is that I want to upgrade to a machine with more motherobard memory capacity, bigger HD, and VGA color. Will sell complete or "stripped" i.e. without 387 and/or monitor/card and/or the 'extra' 1meg RAM. Leave me a msg here if you'd like more info.

Anyone out there who has first-hand experience with using or with connect- ing-up any of these terminals? Or any leads to info in publications? Thanx. dup. chars. >Function:?
