I use it on Mac. I use it under Crossover. It's not 100% but works
pretty well.

I think the upscaling of CP437 is what sets it apart from SyncTerm.
Unless you can do this with SyncTerm too?

Crossover is a pretty good emulator thing for running windows programs on mac but its not free so idk if i can use it. I'm on a pretty tight budget right now so i might not be able to afford it is there maybe a waz to run it under wine or something similar?

Hi Warpslide!

Hi Omni,
I just tried using 0.7.6 on my MacBook.
When trying to connect in to Mystic with SSH I got:
"No common key algorithm"
So have reverted back to 0.7.5 for now.

If that doesn't work out for you, I use a program called ZOC terminal from http://www.emtec.com, its a commercial program and haven't really looked at anything else.

Cheers,

I use SyncTerm. Works great! You don't have to necessarily add all of the sites from it's
database. As far as I know, you can use it for just the sites you want to connect to.

I use Syncterm and Magiterm, both with linux. Syncterm also has a Windows version. I *think* Magiterm might also.

I use Syncterm personally but it's all about what you are comfortable with.

Yes Netrunner is a good client but i cant use it on macOS. Are there any other alternatives that i could use that are similar in
function and use?

I posted a good while ago hoping we could get a flatpack version of this. Then it would just work on everything. g00r00 would have to do it and as hard as he works on Mystic I doubt we can push for more effort as the BBS world relies on him quite a bit. Maybe one day.

Hi Omni,

I just tried using 0.7.6 on my MacBook.

When trying to connect in to Mystic with SSH I got:
"No common key algorithm"

So have reverted back to 0.7.5 for now.

I replaced all communication libraries with async ones the SSH library works but doesn't support a wide range of ciphers - the very new ones should be covered but I'm aware that it fails for some BBSes.

I recommend staying on 0.7.5 unless you're running in bugs. However telnet works - the telnet part is implemented by me :). Secure WebSockets should work as well as far as I can tell. SSH will vary :/.
But I'll look at the ssh libs which are available.
