termcap
I can't find the message now, but someone was looking for a termcap file. Currently I am going through some of the .DSK I made for use with Mess and I found an abbreviated sample of a termcap file, which if memory serves was used for something BBS related. It includes entries for WYSE50, VT100, Atari ST, CoCo3 OS9 LVII, Model-100, dec VT-52, Heath Zenith 29, Silicon graphics, WYSE30, Sun Workstation.

Japanese PC Game in CoCo Style?
"Beluga Mk II" (C)2007 T. MATSUSHIMA Video 1st 3 Stages: http://de.youtube.com/watch?v=u2IArNy2If8 I guess this is a PC game reduced to CoCo Colors/Resolution. Should be portet...(The download http://matzun.hp.infoseek.co.jp/beluga.zip doesn't work for me). Torsten -- Coco mailing list Coco@... http://five.pairlist.net/mailman/listinfo/coco

Re: Vcc 1.40
The support for cassette files is very nice and has worked on all the ones I have played with so far. Really great emulator! Joe F <joef6809@...> wrote: I just uploaded Version 1.40 of Vcc. I've changed a lot of internal stuff around so I'd appreciate any bug reports you might wish to give. I've not had time to write the revised docs, maybe next week. It should be fairly self evident however. The Cassette support could use a little more work but its mostly stable. Good weekend to all.

Is there a way you can eMail this to me? It sounds like something I can use... also sounds like it *could*

Re: Japanese PC Game in CoCo Style?
Torsten, I am not sure it is - it looks like it could really be an actual CoCo game (but it certainly isn't one I recognize). The download, though, does appear to be a PC/DOS executable in the zipfile. I wonder if it is a real CoCo game, but written for the CoCo 3, using CoCo 2 screen modes for less CPU load (so more could be dedicated to sound)? Maybe even written post-1992? I can't imagine why someone would create a game for the PC, and old-school it down to CoCo colors/res? I can only think of one other possibility: Maybe it is a CGA-only game? AFAIR, though - CGA didn't have a red/green/blue/yellow palette set. I don't even remember a hack to enable such a thing. I suppose it could've been done in an EGA mode of some sort. At any rate, the sound probably come from speaker twiddling (though it seemed like cleaner sound than that - like a DAC tied to the parallel port). I would love to know what the truth/reality of this game is - it looks like something on the edge of what a CoCo could do, given the right programming. -- Andrew --- > Message: 13 > Date: Sat, 01 Mar 2008 13:31:38 +0100(Continue reading)
