I have a slightly later Plato terminal (don't recall the model offhand) and
I was planning on doing what you describe (talking to Cyber1 via a PC
proxy) at some point but of course I never got around to actually executing
any of those plans :). I'd love to make use of your solution if you can
share it.
Thanks!

If someone buys this, let me know. I own one of the

it regularily on Plato (Cyber1). Paul Koning provided me with a copy of
the binary resident , and I wrote a wrapper to load it into the terminal
upon power-up; so that the terminal will speak Plato ASCII protocol to
cyber1.org via a serial cable connected to a PC which wraps things in IP
over to cyber1.org port 8005.

Looks like the owner tired of my (and other) attempts at getting him
to ship it and has....decided he can ship it, after all. At quite a
premium:
