Well, good news. If you set M100 CPM to 'Sc S' and 'Cu S' it works much better. I still found an issue playing Zork III where it says "-----more-----" then stopped responding, requiring me to press enter on the M100.stat con:=uc1: <-- Redirect CP/M output to serial portstat con:=tty: <-- Change it back to M100 native display (type this from terminal program on PC)I am using Minicom 2.7.1 on Linux (VT102 emulator with 19200 N81). I left it on overnight and it is still working this morning.

The Sc L vs Sc S is a good point! I will try changing this tonight and see if it helps. My ultimate goal is to ssh into my home PC from work so I can play with CP/M during lunch :).TomOn Tue, Nov 16, 2021 at 11:21 AM Jim Anderson <[email protected]> wrote:
First thought that comes to mind: it may be stopping because of the feature which pauses the screen output after 8 lines of consecutive output – try Label-F1-Label to toggle ‘Sc L’ to ‘Sc S’ to disable this before redirecting the console? I’m glad to see this post because I honestly had been thinking a while back that “I wish there was a way to use a ps/2 keyboard with my MVT100 board as a full-blown terminal” but didn’t try anything because I’m not familiar enough with CP/M to know how to redirect the console like that. What baud rate does it end up using when you do this? jim From: M100 <[email protected]> On Behalf Of Tom Hoppe Sent: Tuesday, November 16, 2021 10:50 To: [email protected] Subject: [M100] Re-directing CP/M console to serial port in REXCPM CAUTION External Sender: Do not click links or open attachments unless you recognize the sender and know the content is safe. I am trying to re-direct the REXCPM console to the M100 serial port but only having limited success. I am using 'stat con:=uc1:' to do the re-direct. It seems to work for a minute, then stops. I am using minicom in Linux and it works reliably using the REXCPM 'F3 toggle' feature to re-direct only the screen output (19200 8N1). Has anyone else tried doing this successfully? Tom Hoppe
