I'd say it looks more like a BBS to me than any
sort of command-line
client, but then I put a lot of time in on real VT100s with white or
amber phosphor and substantially less time on terminals with green
phosphor.
It's cute, but I can see it getting annoying after not so much time.
Yeah, on both points -- now that I've used it for a couple days. A bit
of a novelty at first, but then ...
However, back around the late 70s/early 80s, I recall hooking up some
no name terminals with green screens. But I do see the BBS flavor in
it too.
I may have to pull this out to annoy _others_, though
(I've lost track
of how many folks asked me why I was using "DOS" when I had multiple
term windows open on a Linux box).
Heh.
