Hey Benny!

BP> and vim have lua ?, then whole fidonet package could be writed
BP> in lua :)

According to google there is a couple versions of lua for termux.  I'll install it the next time I fire up the tablet.  Personally all my fidonet scripts are bash including the two msgs I sent your way from the tablet.  I also managed to add the Old English taglines to the tablet as well so I know my stuff does work without much modifications -> mostly paths.  x86_64-motorshed-linux-gnu is a regular linux system rather than a cheap knockoff like aarch64-unknown-linux-android.  ;-)

MK>> I believe this beats gopher.  :-)

BP> not yet

Prove it.  I have yet to see a msg coming from your gopher feed.  That means that as things stand today WeBeBashing is VASTLY superior as this reply will attest to.  You have a long ways to go just to catch up, nevermind beat.

BP> make it on termux

Agreed.  So far I've ported my bash scripts from x86_64-motorshed-linux-gnu to aarch64-unknown-linux-android so I am happy that I appear to be knowing what I am doing.  Also using binkd on both to upload/download pkts to/from so that is covered without any harm to any other transfer protocol such as ftp.  read/write access to those in the know ... just like mom used to do.

Life is good,
Maurice
