modern serial terminal

To hammer this back to the portable serial terminal thread, a 68K-based terminal would be *great*, but unless you wanted to get into graphical emulation (Tektronix, GraphOn, VT240...), overkill for the original scope. I'm personally very fond of the 68000, and have tubes and tubes of the 64-pin DIP variety on the shelf and lots of hardware trace and debugging tools, but compared to an 8051 or a Z-80 or 6502 design, not cost effective. It would be a fun little box, though... and difficult to avoid serious feature creep into a 16/32-bit Micro. -ethan -- Ethan Dicks, A-333-S Current South Pole Weather at 7-Nov-2007 at 21:20 Z South Pole Station PSC 468 Box 400 Temp -54.8 F (-48.2 C) Windchill -79.1 F (-61.7 C) APO AP 96598 Wind 6.1 kts Grid 325 Barometer 685.7 mb (10414 ft) Ethan.Dicks at usap.gov http://penguincentral.com/penguincentral.html
