13Leader Posted April 25 Share Posted April 25 (edited) I have been using TAZ for many years now and it's a great ANSI terminal! It does have one little issue. On my PAL ST the screen has this flickering thing going on that's not nice at all in ANSI mode. I am sure on a real ST monitor you would not see it at all but on my Asus 27" with a RetroTink it is very very bad. The Flash terminal does not seem to do this but it has no ANSI mode. Anyway. I have been collecting ST ANSI terminals here: https://13leader.net/download/ST_Terminal_Programs.zip So What do other folks use?

+Sauron Posted April 26 Share Posted April 26 ANSITerm and Flash were my two go-tos back in the day. No experience with TAZ or Freeze Dried Terminal, but I've heard good things about both. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's been a thing with Taz due to how it gets those colors for you... That's why I always use ANSITerm. I've been known to use Interlink sometimes if I want one of the plugins... but generally, I tend to favor ANSITerm when calling the ST BBSs from my Falcon.

Atari8guy Posted April 27 Share Posted April 27 My general go to is FDT (Freeze Dried) but ANSITerm and Flash get used sometimes. I'll use Interlink if I want to call an 8bit BBS as it does ATASCII Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zzip Posted April 27 Share Posted April 27 I wrote my own back in the day. It did ANSI and ATASCII. I intended to release it some day but I'm not sure I ever did. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I already PMed him with the obligatory "hey, could I sneak a peek at the source" and "hey, want me to send you a WiModem232" I'd love to do some work on a term program, but I really don't have the time or energy to start one from scratch and reinvent the wheel. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
