What I do know when I plan to have it off-line (for backups, etc), is open a connection to the Pi after I take the board down. Note that I have never gotten it to display the contents of the second text file "offline.txt". I then try to open a second connection, this second connection will get the contents of the busy.txt file (saying the board is busy, even though it is actually off-line). I would then open a telnet connection to the Pi, which would succeed. For example, I would have no program at all running on the Apple. What it does know- is if somebody else is connected to the Pi. ![]() It appears the Pi has no idea if anybody else is logged on to the BBS, it doesn't even know if the BBS is actually on-line. Hi 6502enhanced, glad you like the board.Īs for "scripts/busy.txt", do you mean how does the Raspberry Pi know the board is busy, so it will display the contents of busy.txt to the remote caller? That was a mystery to me as well as a few others. It might have something to do with me using a Raspberry Pi as a modem. (telnet port 6502) I tried to run verson 2, but could not get it to work (yet). (Hugh indicated I was free to give to anybody who was interested).ĭj's Place BBS (also GBBS Pro) is actually running at 9600 baud, but he is using a prototype version 2 of GBBS Pro. I could probably send you the hacked file if you wanted to try it. ![]() I don't know if Hugh is on this forum or not, he responded to my plea for help in the Apple II forum on. 4800 works great though, smooth as glass. He tried for 9600 baud, and it actually connected, but I could not get it to recycle after a caller disconnected, and I had to manually reset it. Hugh Hood hacked the external modem file of v1.2 so it supports 4800 baud. How did you get up to 4800bps? I'm having all sorts of trouble at 1200bps but I think a lot of problems would disappear at higher speeds. I lost interest in the BBS scene for a few months after getting frustrated with my own GBBS setup. This Terminal application may be what I start using.I'll have to jump on and try this one out, looks good skipper. (Presumably/hopefully, all output and the edge.) In fact, there's a small gap even between the prompt and the edge. If you kinda look at it, you can see that where I did > echo hello in both the standard cmd.exe (foreground) and the Terminal application, "hello" in cmd is smushed right up against the edge.(hence why some of the previous output in the program I was working on has 1 space right before each line).but in Terminal there's a bit of a gap between "hello" and the left edge. (drum-roll) for me it solves this "text squished up against the left edge" issue, as there seems to be a slight left-edge buffer for any and all (so far as I've used it) console output. It houses command-line programs, has a few different abilities included tabbed sessions, and. Not cmd.exe or conhost.exe, but a separate application.I find it quite good. I had no idea this application existed, but Windows now has a program called "Terminal". I don't know if this particularly warrants an answer, this might get relegated to a comment, but for me I think comment on the original post is a good one.
