I've been playing with Harrison's TCP stuff tonight and have my propeller not only serving a webpage, but
also displaying PETSCII graphics. (Petscii was the Commodore 64 version of ansi.sys)
To see the PETSCII, you either need a real C64 connected to the Internet (Not likely in this crowd)
or grab a copy of this program for the pc/mac www.paradroid.net/cgterm/
Once you run the program, hit ESC, D and type in the address of my propeller: propeller.petscii.com
Tap Enter a couple times to connect.
I think my BBS stuff just went retro.. [noparse]:)[/noparse]
Anyone want a PETSCII control panel for their prop.. <GRIN>

I wrote my first programs in PETSCII!
I remember all of those weird symbols like stars, diamonds and checkers.
