It is not public domain, but the author is letting net users have a free copy. It allows you to do full screen stuff like vi, more, rogue, etc. If you want a copy, send a disk along with a self addressed stamped mailer to: A. Ray Miller Daniels Hall #494 1010 W. Green St. Urbana, IL 61801 You also need to set your account up properly. Put something like this in your .cshrc file: alias c64 "setenv TERMCAP /mntb/1/lawrie/miller/.c64;setenv TERM c64;set term = c64;stty -tabs" Put this in file .c64: # # The following entry provides for destructive # backspace for the "terminal5" software for c64, # VT-52 type cursor motion, reverse scroll, # and codes for use of the cursor control keys: # qc|c64|C64|Commodore 64:co#40:li#25:\ :up=\EA:am:ho=\EH:\ :nd=\EC:so=\EO:se=\EN:ce=\EK:\ :cd=\EJ:sr=\EI:bc=\ED:\ :cl=\EH\EJ:cm=\EY%+ %+ :\ :ku=^B:kd=^P:kr=^T:kl=^E: This is (absolutely positively) the last time I'm mentioning this program on the net. "Side affects" of the notes take up too much time, e.g., the last time I made this offer I got *several dozen* disks in the mail. Also, I just joined into a scientific creationism discussion on net.misc. Research for responses on that will no doubt take some time also. By the way, we haven't gotten hardly any notes on net.* for several days now. Is anyone else having the same problem? A. Ray Miller Univ Illinois
