CONNSTAR — Communications for the Amstrad CPC
CONNSTAR brings two M4 Board clients together on one disk:

  • CPCFAX: Viewdata access for services such as Telstar and Amshole.
  • M4TERM: A True VT100 Terminal! A first for the Amstrad CPC we think.
    Highlights
  • Fast text drawing, screen clearing and scrolling.
  • VT100 cursor movement, scroll regions, text attributes and line-drawing characters.
  • Telnet terminal-type and window-size negotiation.
  • Editable manual addresses with working Delete and Backspace.
  • Improved connection cleanup and error reporting.

Getting started
Load CONNSTAR.DSK in CPCemu with M4 support, or on an Amstrad CPC with an M4 Board, then enter:
RUN"CONNSTAR"
Choose 1 for Viewdata or 2 for the terminal.
