iX = set interface mode to X (default=auto) where X is one of: The icon showed up on phosh but didn't launch an application window. It needed build-essential, libncurses5-dev and libsdl1.2-dev to compile successfully. I gave it a shot on mobian running on the pinephhone. compile SyncTerm and join me.Įasy? That sounds like my cue to make hard work of it! and if yer an Amiga person I think you'd be taken back. I'll ask Anachronist - he runs aBSINTHE BBS the very best Amiga BBS in 2020.
SYNCTERM HELP UPDATE
theres many more BBSes and I plan to update this post with a best-of listing.
SYNCTERM HELP FULL
I did see you appy today - I did validate you and gave you full access to all door games and message networks. Perhaps you can recommend and ANSI terminal for the Amiga that would run on MorphOS? My C=128 has not been online since, and I doubt I will setup an ethernet bridge to get it back online. There were still a couple dial up BBSes I used until about 5-6 years ago when I shut off the land line.
SYNCTERM HELP HOW TO

Under this I'm going to post some other BBS info for anyone who wants to jump in. This is a BBS server, tho, and lets you RUN a BBS. Currently Image BBS is at 2.0 and they have downloads available for installing directly to old hardware. Furthermore, there are tons of Commodore BBSes up currently - Image BBS that used to be around is actually being developed in 2020 and they are about to release version 3.0 shortly. they were popular to build a year ago and are simple enough to put together.
SYNCTERM HELP SERIAL
so long as you're in any ANSI BBS terminal you should be able to login, and see the ANSI graphics.Ībout your Desterm on a C128, sure you could use it to login - however unless its updated for telnet you would have to use a serial to ethernet modem. Nice to see BBSes showing up again, they can be great social places and lots of fun. I am an old BBSer from the '80s and 90s and I got as far as getting something along the lines of "and die".

Later, if theres interest, I can writeup how to RUN a BBS. and if theres interest here, I can tell ya'll the best of the best. You can google TELNET BBS LIST for many other (better) BBSes. Hit Esc twice, and enter 'new' to create a new user. This allows you to see all the ANSI art.ĭial in, and type 'meatloaf' when asked for system password - I'm not fully LIVE yet, so a syspass is set. Port 1337 (You'll have to press F2 on the entry to edit this after you add.)Īgain, be sure hide status line in the entry.

Now, just add some BBSes and get to calling! I'd like it if you applied to MY BBS 20 For Beers by pressing 'insert' with the following details: You might want to change the following setup options first, with 'hide status line' as the most important:Ĭhange dl/ul paths, I make mine /Downloads You can hit Alt+Enter to go full screen, or drag to size. (This isn't required, but its way better if so.) and make sure in the title bar its running in SDL mode. Now just run syncterm from your GUI or CLI. Make SRC_ROOT=/home/pinebook/Downloads/syncterm-20200917/src
SYNCTERM HELP INSTALL
(I install from my /Downloads directory.) (You can head to to read about it yourself, but the following will work from a command line, too.): You also need some curses and SDL dependancies, but they are installed on a Manjaro install. I'll walk you thru it, using Manjaro ARM like you have on the PineBook Pro:įirst lets handle dependancies. SyncTerm is IMO the better software and is easier to get compiled on ARM computers. (fsxNet leans more towards Mystic BBS software.)Īt any rate you'll need an ANSI-BBS compatible terminal software like SyncTerm or Netrunner. with its focus on Synchronet BBS software.

Also, Dove-Net is probably a close second. (I run both of those networks on my BBS.)įidoNet still lives! Also, there are *several* current FTN's, or FidoNet stlye message networks, that are currently active in 2020 with fsxNet being the most popular one by far. The are a few good door game networks these days, as opposed to simply playing door games locally on a BBS we now link them and play on networks like BBSLink or DoorParty. There is still a great ANSI-art scene, with packs being released to this date! if you want to view the ANSI scene of 2020. However today I'll just help you get logged onto one. These single board computers and SoC's are perfect for retro computing, and even running bulletin board systems. I'd like to invite you all to join the BBS scene of 2020.
