Hey howdy hey, more to report on the z80 computer! First, I
am writing this on the z80 connected over serial agetty to a
linux box. It's not much, but it's "networking."
Previously I had issues doing this. Buffer issues. But,
after getting the serial ports sorted out, I turned on
hardware flow control in agetty and things are swimming. It
is working very smooth.
Software wise on the CP/M side, I'm using a little .COM
program called "Very Dumb Terminal" for the rc2014 project.
I can't recall where I got it. It works just fine, and since
it is interfaced to a vt100 terminal, it passes everything
through just fine. I'm using nano to write this with very
few issues.
