Hi Brian, Just watched your video on youtube: TRS-80 Model 100/102 using teeny and dlplus on Linux (https://youtu.be/H0xx9cOe97s) Covers a lot of different stuff, but extremely helpful to my understanding. I've totally got it straight now about the cabling and direct connect serial between

Although the phone companies support pulse dialing, not all internet modems do if you are doing voice over IP. I have an old rotary dial telephone I acquired a while back from eBay. It worked fine when I lived in Texas but when we moved to Illinois, I discovered the new Xfinity box we got

For chucking text files back and forth I have had relatively OK luck just "cat"ing a file to or from the serial port, with the caveat that XON/XOFF flow control and a low baud rate make it more reliable. This works relatively well for logging in to a getty, too. I haven't spent enough time

So, hardwarewise I have my m100 talking to my Mac Pro. I can run dlplus, mcomm, etc on the Mac and then TEENY.CO on the m100. Now, I'd like to just open up a connection where I can send and receive ascii over the serial lines. There's a lot of discussion in the Manual about modem connections,
