Thread: [Amforth] VT100 terminal IMAC

SourceForge Headquarters 225 Broadway Suite 1600 San Diego, CA 92101 +1 (858) 422-6466

Hello,

I am searching for a free ware VT100 terminal emulater for the IMAC.

Can you give me me some sugestions?

Cheers

I'm not a mac guy, but this might do the trick:

I use minicom to talk to amForth from my linux box and it works great.

Hi,

Open up a terminal.

Now you have a number of choices :)

loak at man screen.

Something like screen /dev/cu.usbserial 9600. adjust the port name and baud rate to suit.

My personal favourite is kermit though you ma have to build this your self.

Hi Jan,
	there are several options with Mac OS X and terminal support.

First, you might try command line programms like good old kermit [1] (that's what I use) or screen [2]
or as mentioned before minicom [3]

And then here are some GUI programs for OS X. 
Classical is ZTERM [4], but then you can also choose among different Cocoa based apps:
Cornflake [5], CoolTerm [6] or goSerial [7].
All have more or less the same features. Have a look at them an choose yourself. You might
want to let us know, what suits your needs best.

Regards,
		Ulli

I use ZOC if I want a GUI tool:

Else I use emacs or screen:

Hello Ulli,

Thanks for your information. Some of them in the list are new for me.
Yes you are right, I should have mentioned my needs.

I need a VT100 or equal emulator for communication between my arduino and this "terminal"

I want to place text on fixed positions on the screen, and also have the possibility to delete some text or as an example the text from a certain position
to the end of the line.

I think wit VT100 emulation this will working perfect.

Cheers,

Jan Kromhout
