MTERM

Terminal program supplied with TS 2050 modem. The TS2068 program on this tape is MTERM/T, the “Tiny Terminal program”, Version 1.00, © 1983 Micro-Systems Software Inc. Its main menu offers auto-dialing a telephone number, border, ink and paper colours, a system setup menu (duplex, parity, stop bits and word length) and terminal mode. On-line it reports ring-in, connect, “Connection lost”, “No answer or busy” and manual disconnect, and a status line gives Clear, Menu and Print commands.

The cassette label reads “Communications Program for Timex Model 2068”, ℗1984, Westridge Communications, Inc. The loader on the tape, however, is Anchor Automation’s: a BASIC title screen (“AAI Version 1.0”) reading “Reach more of the world with Anchor Automation Inc. Smart Terminal, telecommunication software”, which loads 8,000 bytes of code (aterm) at 54016 and runs it. The code’s sign-on names both Micro-Systems Software and Anchor Automation Inc.
