    g0> Sure I'd be willing to look into it although it might end up being an   
    g0> Alpha 48 feature since I am pretty close to releasing A47 I think.    
    g0> Things have been mostly stable so I want to get a release out officially   
      
   WOW This is really exciting!!! Thanks for looking into this!!   
      
    g0> The biggest hurdle is probably that I don't have a Commodore or know too   
    g0> much about PETSCII.  Its just something I never look into before as I   
    g0> don't think anyone has asked in the past.  I would want a reliable way   
      
      
   Emulation would work, but I dare suggest (cringing): You can use Syncterm   
   which has PETSCII support if you want a down and dirty quick way to test it. I   
   know that is sacrilege to suggest but it does. hehe   
      
   I would foresee PETSCII support making its way into Netrunner though as a   
   result of Mystic offering PETSCII!! ;)   
      
    g0> hardware?) and one or two people who can test it as well to help provide   
    g0> some feedback.   
      
   Well I know you would have me FOR SURE testing it on  real hardware and   
   emulation, I know Al (Bucko) would too!!!! Yeah I threw him under the bus but   
   this is a feature that is huge to him and I for our BBS'.  For me my   
   8bitboyz.com  crowd of Commodore users would also be excited for this.   
      
   Thank you for considering this!
