  • Best Telnet terminal for Amiga

    From Nicola Mettimano@2:335/601 to All on Sat Feb 4 17:47:15 2023
    Hello guys, I use Miami DX as a TCP Stack so I need a telnet terminal that use TCP IP; i tried DCTelnet 1.5 but but I'm not very happy with it...
    For example it is not automatically recognized as ansi terminal even if ansi displays without problems.
    Can you give me some advice please?

    I use DCTelnet v1.5 with the HyperAnsi font size 8.
    You could also use AmTelnet with the hyperansi font as well
    These are the 2 I use the most.

    I use Term 4.8 with Telser. This is bar far the best Amiga Terminal out there by far!

    I just enabled bsdsockets in my emulator (AmiBerry in this case) and then installed telser -- I installed it by selecting AmiTCP as the install option, after that it kind of just worked!

    i'm not quite sure where to put the keyfile though -- still learning my way around Workbench a bit
