  • Mac MuffinTerm

    From deon@21:2/116 to All on Fri Dec 23 13:26:22 2022
    Howdy,

    Over the years, there has often been questions about terminal to use on iOS devices because of the lack of them.

    Well I've just discovered MuffinTerm on the App Store (for iOS and MAC devices), and I wanted to share that I thought it was a very nice terminal to use.

    Your "address book" sync with iCloud, so your devices have an updated address book, making it easy to switch between them.

    While on a phone, the screen size and keyboard size make it a little hard for writting messages - but checking on the system it works well.

    But on the iPad (with an external keyboard) its great, also on the MAC as well.

    I use an app called iYnewReader. Its a NNTP news reader. Handles BBS echomail fairly decently. I do not have a NNTP server coded yet, but it works well
    with Mystic & Syncronet. Granted, its only echomail. No games, netmail, etc.

    I've been using Mocha Telnet on my iPhone/iPad ... it does the job but I've never played with anything else.. I probably should :)
