AspeQt-ng in Google Play Store — Atari SIO Peripheral Emulator for Android

AspeQt QML redesign: loader slot, drive slots and log

Modem — R: device / Atari 850 emulation

Dial BBSes over TCP from a terminal program on the Atari.

  • Telnet and SSH, with a phonebook (search, favourites, live filtering) in AspeQt-2k26's XML format.
  • SSH-SHELL protocol: shows the host-key fingerprint and asks for the login and password on the Atari, like a real ssh client, ssh passwords are not stored on your device. Keys are remembered in known_hosts.

ssh_atari_terminal

  • Answers incoming calls on a listening port.
  • Requires a hardware handshake method (RI/DSR/CTS), not SOFT.

Network browser

Browse TNFS, FTP, FTPS and SFTP servers: mount .atr images straight into a
drive, mount xex or cas files, or download files.

  • Address history and favourite servers.
  • Mounted images are fetched into a cache; ejecting offers to save them, and the cache is purged at startup so nothing accumulates.
  • Runs on a worker thread — a slow or unreachable server no longer freezes the UI.

EPSON printer emulation

The Atari's print jobs are now rendered onto a page instead of collected as plain text: bit graphics, bold, underline, italic, elite, condensed, expanded and super/subscript.

  • Pinch to zoom, fit-to-width, change font (defaults to Cutive Mono).
  • Save the page as PNG or PDF (one printed page per PDF page).
  • Options has a printer section with a bundled test page, the emulation can
    be tested without an Atari.

epson_printer

Atari 850 R: device (modem), a network file browser and Epson printer emulation ported from AspeQt-2k26 PC version. See src/AUTHORS.txt for more details.

Fixes

  • Stopping emulation during a modem call left the SIO worker streaming, after which no command frame was ever read again — disks included. It also could not be stopped at all without unplugging the cable.
  • Changing the serial speed, handshake method or interface now reopens the port instead of quietly taking effect only after a manual stop/start.
  • FTPS: data connection resumes the control channel's TLS session, which servers that require it were rejecting.
  • Submitted URLs (the SmartDevice hi-score protocol) open on the main thread.
  • Long disk names no longer push the eject button off the screen.

Included for testing

  • src/printer/epson-test.prn — the print job behind Print a test page. It exercises every typeface, pitch and graphics mode, and the same Options screen replays any other .prn capture, so the printer can be worked on without an Atari attached.
  • src/icet/icet.atr — the Ice-T terminal (by Itay Chamiel), a ready disk for trying the modem: mount it, boot, then dial with ATDT or from the phonebook.
