Re: [Gambas-devel] BUG: Recent changes to TerminalView stop you from responding to certain prompts

[Tony M. <tmo...@aj...>]

I know.  One of the first programs I wrote back in the early 80s was a 
terminal program to let my first IBM-compatible, a 12 mHz 80286, talk to 
my other computer, a Z80 CP/M machine.

Don't get me started on wiring a serial cable.  Back then, nothing was 
plug'n'play.  Everything, including serial ports, was custom.
