  • Syncterm

    From Mojo@VERT to All on Mon Jun 13 03:18:31 2016
    Can some please tell me where syncterm stores the data file that has all the information for all the different systems you have entered into it for all the places you have that you visit. I ask this so I could transfer this to other machines that I also use for connecting to the different places I visit. SO that I can avoid having to try to enter all this for the multiple machines
    that I use.

    Thanks
    Mojo

    The filename is syncterm.lst. The location depends on the platform you're running it on. On Windows, it's in a sub-directoroy of your user's profile directory (e.g. "C:\users\you\AppData\Roaming\SyncTERM\syncterm.lst").

    If you type "dir /s c:\syncterm.lst" from a command prompt, it doesn't find it?

    Anyone get the issue with backspace/delete not always being what you want them to be in Syncterm?

    With a recent compile of it in Linux, it usually follows the 'stty erase' setting from the shell, except in other screen modes like Atari. When in Atari mode, I always have to ^H to backspace. When screen mode is just set to "current", and I run syncterm from a default shell, I get ^? for backspace on the PC boards.. if I "stty erase ^H" first, then it will give me ^H for backspace on those. With Atari, it's the same no matter what. Pretty sure the same goes for Commodore but I will have to check again.

    It'd be cool if there was a setting for this, and maybe there is but I overlooked it.

    Oh, I forgot to mention that I don't have this issue when I build it on Mac.

    I think you might have answered this a while back, but I thought there was an issue in SyncTerm with flashing ansi and I realized it's only when I'm running Syncrhonet doors. If I'm on another system SyncTerm shows flashing ansi just fine. I think it might have to do with creating issues or something but can't remember.

    If "high intensity background" color (so-called "ICE color") supporte is enabled or a custom font is loaded for the blink-attribute combination, then generally blinking is disabled in SyncTERM (though it is technically possible to get both).

    I can call two separate boards same SyncTerm settings if it's not Synchronet based I see te blink.

    But I'll fool with the settings and see.
