  • Amazing Development

    From Oderus@64:500/2 to All on Tue May 19 13:56:42 2020
    Alright, so I will give a bit of background here. I love using Skypix when dialing into my favorite Skypix BBS, but let's face it. For those of us without
    an actual Amiga, and detailed knowlege (or at least some), this can be a tricky thing to do in emulation. Spitfire of Reign of Fire BBS put a nice package together that definately made it easier. A month or so later I noticed the developer(s) of SyncTERM (Windows, Linux terminal) were working on a new version. I figured what do I have to loose by asking for skypix support. This turned out better than I could have evern anticipated. Not only was the developer interested, he now has a proof of concept that is working! I will provide a link so you can look yourself, scroll through the comments and you will see it. Hopefully when this is released, it will breathe some new life into Skypix and also allow more people to easily use skypix with the most popular terminal program these days. He has really done some amazing work.

    The link is rather long, so I will use a bit.ly shortener, but it takes you to the sourceforge gif he has posted.

    I am way too excited!!!

    I was hoping to look at the progress of skpix, but that link didn't work for me! :(

    Anybody else?
