Graphics terminal
« on: September 13, 2012, 11:46:33 AM »
Hello all,
I now have my A2000 hooked into my PC via a null modem cable! :)

I want to connect to some of my favorite C64 BBS and need advise on a good terminal program to use. On my C64 I use CCGMS which does ANSI graphics nicely. What is a good term to run on my Amiga.

It's an A2000 running OS 3.1.

Thanks, Dan

Thanks for the tips folks.
I found Terminus and it looks great. Not sure if I need a library for Commodore ANSI graphics or not.

I've been using 64\128 since the 80's but just getting into the Amiga.

LOL, well I still have and use a 128D setup in my radio room.
Last year I got an Amiga A2000 given to me and since then I've been getting familiar with it. I also upgraded it to full ECS, 3.1 ROM, and even found a 030\25Mhz card for it.

I'm a gamer, so that's my main interest in it, always loved the Amiga but never had the time to get into it. Now I do, along with about 30 video game consoles. :lol:

Yeah, I have a gaming addiction. :insane:

And thanks, I'm sure I'll have plenty of questions.

Still need to expand my 8bit/16bit console collection myself. 30 sounds like the number Im aiming for, too. Cant say I prefer 16 bit over 8 bit, but playing around with a 16 bit home computer is a lot easier than 8 bit, to be honest..

@C64er Do you have a chameleon64?

I have a large collection of gaming consoles from the Atari 2600 to a PS3.
There are obscure consoles like the Channel F I don't have but almost all the others.

I don't have a chameleon64 but that thing looks bad a$$!
I have a VIC20, C64, C64C, 128, and a 128D. They are all stock except for my 128D. I have JiffyDOS and a MegaBit chip loaded in it. Also linked to run Telnet BBSing.
