Wonderfully Displays ANSI Graphics

Product Platform: MacOSX

Used Product For: 1-6 months

Recommend Product: YES

It's great to see that Stephen has finally made SyncTERM available on VersionTracker. I have used his program for a number of months now, and more recently have been assisting him in working out some of the problems on the Macintosh platform. While SyncTERM may lack the smooth, polished Macintosh interface that we have all come to know and love, it is superior to other Macintosh telnet clients when it comes to properly displaying the ANSI graphics commonly used on BBSes.

BTW, if anyone encounters a problem with the application crashing upon launch, I have temporarily made available another copy which does not have this problem. I think Stephen may have included the wrong installer package when he put together the .dmg image yesterday.

In addition, I have included some helpful Read Me files in the package for those of you who may be unfamiliar with SyncTERM. It is very reminiscent of old BBS software, so it may seem foreign to you at first, particularly if you were never a BBSer back in the 80's and 90's.

You can download my temporary package at:

It is compressed with an older version of Stuffit Lite for those of you who may have older systems on your Macs. Enjoy!
