Nice pic!

I tried out both NComm and JR-Comm recently and they both work fine on my A500 with Kickstart 1.2. Both support ANSI gfx when picking the right font, however I found that JR-Comm is significantly faster + it has some more terminal emulation modes to choose from. Does anybody know what the latest version of this excellent piece of software is? And does anybody know how to contact the author (John P. Ranigan)? Maybe he would agree to put it on Aminet...

Significantly faster how?  Connection speed should depend on the serial.device, the modem and preference settings.

I never used JR-Comm.  If it is freeware these days, I might try it.  I remember moving up to NComm to get ANSI capability.  At the time, I was very impressed with it.  IIRC, the full last version is available today on Aminet (freeware?).

Are there any good VT100 style telnet terminals that run windowed? Like whabang I'm more interested in controlling a headless linux system than logging into BBSes, so ANSI character sets and loads of colors isn't that important to me


VLT?   It's on Aminet.
