vt-220 terminal software
« on: May 09, 2006, 08:45:30 PM »
hi,

i have an old vt-220 text console terminal used to be a developer terminal at FiB-UPC university. At home i used it to be a chat / mail terminal in a debian environement... it could be usefull on amiga? i'm thinking about something to execute CLi commands from the serial terminal...

i'm wrong or somethinmg like AuxHandler could be usefull?

Hi,

Yes, the AUX-handler is just for this purpose. You could attache a serial terminal at the serial port of the Amiga and use the AUXhandler. This way you have a multiuser system :-)
The serial terminal can exexute any shell program.

It might be usefull for program testing by sending the debug output to the serial terminal.
