Re: [M100] Model T Terminal
TEXT definitely uses it. It’s hard to tell because the emulation isn’t quite right using PuTTY, but when I was messing with VT100.CO it seemed like the screen in TEXT got all messed up when scrolling down through a large file unless I sized the window at 80x25. It still seems to get really messed up if I turn on the Label line (although worse if it’s 80x24). I think BASIC is pretty messed up with the Label line turned on, too. I’ll have to go try it. Are TEXT and TELCOM maybe the only M100 applications which actually make use of the full 80x25 of a DVI? I hadn’t really thought about it. If the screen area of the MVT100 is not user-selectable then I guess 80x24 is the most compatible mode – not so useful for TEXT or TELCOM or having the Label line turned on in BASIC but definitely best for CP/M and at least it’ll give a large area to scroll for BASIC programs that weren’t intended for the M100… jim From: M100 [mailto:m100-boun...@lists.bitchin100.com] On Behalf Of Stephen Adolph Sent: Tuesday, July 28, 2020 5:05 PM To: m...@bitchin100.com Subject: Re: [M100] Model T Terminal CAUTION External Sender: Do not click links or open attachments unless you recognize the sender and know the content is safe. it is 80x24.

Re: [M100] Model T Terminal
Question for you: is it going to be 80x24, or 80x25, or user-selectable? I know the DVI was 80x25 and applications in the M100 environment are probably going to expect that, whereas CP/M applications expecting a VT100 are mostly going to be expecting 80x24 (some allow you to configure the screen size, some don’t)… jim From: M100 [mailto:m100-boun...@lists.bitchin100.com] On Behalf Of Stephen Adolph Sent: Tuesday, July 28, 2020 3:20 PM To: m...@bitchin100.com Subject: Re: [M100] Model T Terminal CAUTION External Sender: Do not click links or open attachments unless you recognize the sender and know the content is safe. It is going. Thanks for asking. I have tested the pcb and it seems ok. I have some parts now. I have some bugs to fix with the firmware for the video adapter tho. There's always bugs. I was thinking that anyone who got one would eventually need to learn how to upgrade the firmware on their own... so no reason not to get it out there.

It is going. Thanks for asking. I have tested the pcb and it seems ok. I have some parts now. I have some bugs to fix with the firmware for the video adapter tho. There's always bugs. I was thinking that anyone who got one would eventually need to learn how to upgrade the firmware on their own... so no reason not to get it out there.

Hi Steve, For those of us playing from home, how goes work on the Model T Terminal Adapter, the last I remember reading on the list was you were having problems with the loader? Thanks, Dano
