| @torch Very much appreciate you putting this through its paces. While ppc putty works perfectly in the J720, it works once in the Sig3, and then crashes the machine in all subsequent attempts.
As an aside, do you telnet into lynx.scramworks.net ? Text browsing and it looks great in putty.

| It's just like going to a BBS site except it brings up a menu for firing up his on-line lynx browser. So it's lynx.scramworks.net as the telnet address and 22 as the port, and it should take you right there. If you have Hyperterminal in your Win machine, it'll work the same.
Let me know if you get stuck,

| Thank you! I did what you said, but left "telnet" as the port and it worked.

| Update : I emailed Mr. Toth and he said to modify the font size and here’s a new screenshot. Obviously this is the highest font size (I think default is 10, I put it at 24 just to show you )
Ideally I know it’s better to have an actual fit and line wrap to windows but it’s better than before  (image0.jpeg)Attachments ---------------- image0.jpeg (84KB - 0 downloads) |

| Thanks again for looking into this. While the font is certainly larger and a full screen used, the text run off the screen's side is a drag. Putty doesn't do that, I wonder why this does.
At one time @RTFM had a putty for the 900C, but I couldn't find it.
The pix tell a thousand word, so thanks again,
Jake |

| Have you tried this version?

Version 2003-06-24 supports the higher resolution of the Sig |

| Nice find, @torch. I'd used 24term in a J720. White font on black background makes thing a little easier on the eyes, but I don't know why the font isn't adjustable.
Many thanks,
Jake |

| At least we have the source (the 2002 version is 640x240; 2003 is locked to higher res for the Sig)
I wonder if it’s trivial to change the built in font to something else…
(I’m not asking you to do it. Just thinking out loud) |
