New port of comms/pterm, aka PLATOterm.
PLATO is a BBS-like system with roots in training and education but grew
into a community through muti-user games, messaging, and chat. There's
been a resurgence the past few years with effort from IRATA.online and
ports of pterm to different OS's and retro-computers.
The binary is officially 'pterm' but I had to rename it to 'platoterm' as
putty already has a pterm binary.
Only been able to test on amd64. Don't know how to test the floppy
support yet, either.
Default connection is to cyber1's system, but IRATA.online is free to sign
up and also has a guest account for checking it out. If you want to try
it, be sure to know the PLATO terminal keyoard maping to a PC keyboard:
https://cyber1.org/keyboard.asp (it's also in pterm's help menu)

DESCR:
Pterm is a terminal emulator designed for connecting to PLATO-like
systems such as Cyber1 and the Cybis release from Tom Hunter. It also
has the ability to run MicroTutor from floppy disk images.
PLATO is a multi-user system hosting games, educational material, and
communities. A PLATO server is hosted at IRATA.online with free access
and a CYBIS system is hosted at cyber1.org
