Re: A modern BBS
There is something for the Commodore computers which did just that. It was PC software, acting as serial to Ethernet bridge basically. Unfortunately I don’t remember the name; I’m trying to find

Re: A modern BBS
There’s a smaller Lynx for DOS called “Links”. I have not tried it but I did download the source for it. It also looks like it’s written in C. Get Outlook for

Re: A modern BBS
I just fired up an old copy of Lynx under Win32, and was able to even use Google.? It in no way requires a mouse - it uses key strokes to select the next/previous "clickable" item (or text field).?
Re: A modern BBS
Lee, I was just browsing your site with Lynx with no issues.? Obviously it wouldn't render images but that was pretty much the only difference.? Also when selecting a link to a .pdf file Lynx

Re: SIO and Hayesmodem
The classic CP/M approach was two serial port CON: and AUX:. They were typically the same type of devices I used 8251As. THe bis had both and also supported IObyte which was the IO vector map. To a

Re: SIO and Hayesmodem
Good point. I think I have a 512K one because that’s what I had handy – they’re used in many of the Retrobrew ECB and John Monahan’s S100 various boards. I don’t think I have any 62256 chips

Re: SIO and Hayesmodem
What a cute modem! Rich,? If you switch to using a 32K RAM on your SIO, you won't need to cut and patch any RTS/CTS traces.? Firmware is not making any use of RAM Banks. To have the system boot up

Re: SIO and Hayesmodem
Lee, There is Lynx of course. This is a linux text based browser that renders webpages into text like your vcfmw.org page. Maybe something like that could be ported to z80 code, if there arent

Re: Captain Video
Hi, Bill, Perhaps your “pocket-sized Z180 computer” has arrived by now. If so, you may be looking for something to run on it. So here’s a quick “something to send your way”: This is a

Re: SIO and Hayesmodem
While on the topic of modems... https://www.ebay.com/itm/184205143838 They are used in credit card terminals. 2400 baud. Only thing they need besides the normal stuff is a reset signal.

Yeah, not sure how useful this is but it was fun getting it together. The only thing I forgot to mention is the use of a one-piece TTL-to-RS232 level shifter. It has a DE9 on it and fits inside a

All – Just a fun thing to do with the Z80MC and SIO card. With some great detective work from Josh and a little bit of tinkering, I was able to get the SIO connected to a

Re: Z180 (was: Captain Video)
I got my TI-86 in 1998 or maybe 1999. So I don't think it would be considered "later" but can't swear to it. It did use a different processor from most of the other graphing calculators they sold. I'm

Re: Z180 (was: Captain Video)
Many of the later TI 8x were not true Z80 but the sorta compatible Rabbit. and I think later eZ80. A good example of bus width is the DEC T-11, its PDP11 a 16 bit architecture but the T-11 had a
