   Quo vadis, FD?

   Hello Conrad :)   
      
    cjk> machines, kept screen line #25 free for payload and had a mostly   
    cjk> error-free interpretation of AVATAR codes.   
      
   Hmmm ... which part did I miss? I worked closely with Stanislav to get this   
   stuff properly implemented, but maybe I forgot something?   
      
    cjk> Ward now brought me   
    cjk> back into Fido, and I'm (slowly.. very slowly) going towards   
    cjk> using a classical POTS EMSI mailer via Telnet. Specifically, in a   
    cjk> DOSBox.   
      
   Cool!   
      
    cjk> JoHo seems to work on the same thing, but I'm not so sure whether   
    cjk> or not this means FD is in development again.   
      
   Actually, it does mean that. There's a lot of stuff to port, before I can   
   begin adding features. But that time will come.   
      
    cjk> Using FD term in DOSBox gets me disconnected on most Telnet BBSs   
    cjk> because they 'detect a port scanner', which I'm certainly not   
    cjk> using. In a BBS that doesn't use such a detection, I can move   
    cjk> around as I used to, but there's no way to get anything via   
    cjk> ZModem. The ZModem transfer screen pops up, but it's unable to   
    cjk> transfer a single block.   
      
   Have you tried Janis Kracht's system(s)? Or Mark Lewis?   
      
   Have you tried other FOSSILs?
