Howdy Brian,

Its awesome there is another videotex service online :)

I'd forgotten that I logged in, but when I reloaded Syncterm (been talking with Deuce who has fixed up some Prestel rendering), I saw it in there in my phone book.

Syncterm should now be the term emulator for Prestel/Videotex BBSes - he's got the emulating working perfectly. I'll now need to add more frames to my BBS now that its easier to get to it... :)

þ Synchronet þ AnsiTEX bringing back videotex but with ANSI

Hi Deon , sorry late reply on this .. I am not so familiar with the larger networks. Yes SyncTerm is fantastic. I am yet to use it but it is great we haveit. I still need to sort out a download for the Pi. But I am afraid I will makea pigs ear of it. Will do eventually hopefully. Need to check into AnsiTex
again. Has anything changed over there recently?

Brian
