• C128 Terminal Programs

    From Gary McCulloch@1:154/50 to All on Friday, March 26, 2021 18:06:51
    I am trying to use my C128 with some modern equipment to call out to some of the C64 and C128 BBSes. I am using a WiModem from Jim Brain with DesTerm v2.00 and seemed to get it all working and looking good in 40 and 80 columns. Got the CG Graphics looking good and connecting at 9600 baud.
    Are there other C128 owners doing the same? What terms are you using? What modem are you using?

    I sometimes use CCGMS Ultimate (can be found on CSDb) with a 1541-UII+ cartridge directly connected to ethernet. Doesn't support 80col mode,
    though.

    I also use CCGMS, works well for all the Commodore 64 boards. DesTerm is for those Commodore 128 boards and C64 boards that offer 80 columns. If the board offers only 40 columns, DesTerm just fills half the screen and is only for the C128, but it does display the CG graphics well. I wish there was a 80 column CCGMS version.
