Atari8guy Posted April 16, 2021 Share Posted April 16, 2021 Or - Autodialer as its called. The more I use FDT the more I like it. I'm wonder though, now that we mostly telnet into BBSs is there a way to use the built-in phone book, it seems to want me to put in a phone number to actually dial anything and it won't execute a macro without first connecting... Though maybe I'm doing something silly? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tillek Posted April 19, 2021 Share Posted April 19, 2021 Kind of a problem with all the term programs out there. Shame there isn't much source code out there. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bikerbob Posted April 19, 2021 Share Posted April 19, 2021 Yes I have not found one yet that will AUTODIAL a telnet board. 8-bit of course will with ICE-T Just like my BBS I run - no source and the old OTHER BBS menu will not allow anything for the number .. but a number.. and only 10 digits. SO I will have to put the OTHER BBS in a Database text file that I will update. Sucks.. but it is what it is. James Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atari8guy Posted April 19, 2021 Author Share Posted April 19, 2021 The wimodem has a phonebook function, but of course, nothing on screen so you're still committing to memory or typing extra commands to call it up. Ah well, such is life... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
