Connecting to BBS and the Internet VIA rs232

Hello again. I've installed BoycoT, a modem emulator for Windows, but I need a terminal emulator for my A500. I don't have a hard disk for my A500. Is there a way to install Ncomm to floppy, or is there a better free terminal emulator out there?

Stock A500 NTSC model with a501 trapdoor ram. WB 1.3.


Thanks,

grhmhome


Edit: I copied the ncomm directory to ram:, but I get an error stating: 'Cant open req tools library', when I try to run ncomm.
Edit again: Copied to DF0:, but I get the same error.
Edit a third time: The error is probably due to not having reqtoolslibrary installed. I can only find one that is compatible with wb2.x. I was able to find a version for 1.3, so I'll try that.

I'm interested too on this kind of fun ...
Did you used Ncomm at the end? Are you aware of any telnet client that fully support ANSI color codes on a plain MC68000? I have alreasy tried DCTelnet, amTelnet, Virterm.. and they all doesn't work (they need at least '020..)
I just discovered recentely how nice is "Roadshow" TCP/IP stack on an accelerated A500 with ACA500 board

Great video! I suppose the data rates would be variable achieving 19200kbps on most serial connections?

A-Talk isn't a bad terminal application either. Boots on 1.3 from floppy.
