This is interesting stuff. I have a II+ and a Franklin 1000 that is
functionally a II+, and have been struggling to find something that will
run on them. How do you create/edit those HELLO programs? Could you post
a sample of the code?
I have a IIgs, IIe with Transwarp (LOVE to see that start up!), IIe
Enhanced, IIc, and IIc Plus, and mostly play with those, but the
Franklin has a 300 baud Hayes modem in it and I'd get a kick out of
logging in to the net with it. I'm going to poke around to see if I can
find any of those programs you mentioned. Thanks for posting all that
detail.
