Re: A83: Internet on your TI-83/86
Lynx works fine under the new Telnet83 v1.4. In fact, every single program
I've tested works. I tested the following:
lynx
pine
pico
telnet + ftp (though these don't use any VT-100)
irc
these programs are pretty much all you need to get by, however any program
not in that list should still work fine. if you find that a certain program
isn't operating correctly with telnet83, tell me which program didn't work
(email me or reply to this list) and I'll try and correct it.
