The topic of being able to put a Model-T online comes up every now and then. I've been toying with the idea of adding a Telnet client to mComm. My thoughts were to add the ability to switch to Telnet mode in mComm. When a control key is pressed the TELCOM screen will clear and then ask for a URL to connect to. Then, mComm would connect to the remote Telnet server and send all the data to the Model-T, doing the all important buffering so that the Model-T serial buffer isn't over run before it can send an XOFF.
On the other end of the wire would need to be a Telnet server that is geared towards our little machines. To my knowledge, there are none. One would need to be setup. The end result would be a Telnet BBS system geared towards the 40x8 screen (or 40x16). Or a Linux system with the proper termcap. While this is certainly doable, would it be useful? Kurt
