Hello All,

Just testing a long line in this newsreader. For some reason, it keeps yelling at me when it's over 80 characters. That's a feature I need to undo, because it's not the 90s any more. ;)

Regards,
Nick

Damnit Squish! I heard there's a support echo on Fidonet, maybe we can ask the moderator there? :)

Maybe we could figure out what's making Squish puke and patch it after Blue Wave, before Squish is called? More optimally we could figure out how to properly patch Blue Wave, but in the meantime maybe the issue can be fixed in the Squish message base. I've written some software using the Squish API and have the Watcom compiler that supports OS/2 so it might be doable, if you're looking for a project. Capturing a snapshot of a Squish message base with one of the unacceptable messages would be the first step I guess.

I saw a newly dated version when g00r00 posted to Fidonet, so I fired up that VM and upgraded instantly. :)

I know, it's terrible!! :) I've been working on the door first, I think I got the door registered now (using SXCODE.ZIP from Titantic BBS) and a one
byte patch seems to be enough to allow it to work after the year 2000!

Now it's time to find a keygen for the Silver Xpress reader, there must be
one out there already...

(my previous message went out without an origin line, that should be fixed
now too)

For the record, you original message did, in fact, have a tearline and origin line. This is what I saw:

Chris/akacastor

-+- via Silver Xpress V4.01 [NR]

-+- Squish v1.11
+ Origin: Another Millennium - Canada - another.tel (21:1/162)

I've changed the dashes and asterisks so it doesn't break any software that it would normally break.

And here is what came through in this message. So looks like you had two tearlines and an origin line in the original, and one tearline and one origin in the second round.

After that message I logged into Agency and saw the same as you reported - the message had two tearlines and an origin line. So Squish did add the missing origin line, however it also added a duplicate tear line.

The next message, which did come through with correct tear and origin lines, had an origin line written correctly by Silver Xpress, so Squish didn't have to add one (or a tear line) when packing the message.

I think the Silver Xpress door is working correctly on my system now! (though I'm not using it to write this message)

Now that confuses me. Because I didnt change any code yet - I was trying to figure out where the problem might be.

Thinking about it, I have a hunch, my post might have come in with the old clrghouz code and gone out with the new one - which means my old mail in the DB might be problematic for a rescan (encoded incorrectly)... I'll double check that...

Thanks..

Which version of dosbox?

I'm using Dosbox-staging over telnet. I wanted to use Dosbox-X because it has paste but the telnet connections are much slower & have line noise.

Dosbox-staging has the phonebook (as does Dosbox-x) so I've mapped 5551212 to go to my BBS and a few other fake phone numbers to dial others in the Telix dialing directory so I don't have to manually type in atdt agency.bbs.nz

Downloads always work but uploads are hit & miss. Sometimes I just fire up Icy Term and upload it that way. I don't really intend to fully use offline mail, but it's a nostalgia trip for sure.

I really like using Telix, it's pretty quick and responsive. I have a patch that takes away the nag screens but it still says "Unregistered" in the bottom left of the screen.

--- Mystic BBS v1.12 A49 2024/05/29 (Linux/64)
* Origin: Northern Realms (21:3/110)

I'm using Dosbox-staging over telnet. I wanted to use Dosbox-X because
it has paste but the telnet connections are much slower & have line
noise.

The line noise is interesting - I don't think I have ever encountered that. I wonder if DOSBox-X is negotiating the telnet connection correctly. You have to send AT+NET1 to the 'modem' to properly enable the telnet protocol. (though it's possible this may be different if you're on a different version than I've been using) The telnet negotiation bytes might appear like line noise otherwise. (a theory)

I hadn't noticed the connection being slower, I wonder if that is because DOSBox-X is emulating the com port speed while maybe DOSBox-Staging doesn't delay the bytes to match com port speed.

Dosbox-staging has the phonebook (as does Dosbox-x) so I've mapped
5551212 to go to my BBS and a few other fake phone numbers to dial
others in the Telix dialing directory so I don't have to manually type
in atdt agency.bbs.nz

I haven't actually been using the phonebook, but now that you mention it I realize I am silly not to. I just manually type in ATDTaddress to connect, for the boards that don't fit into the Telix dialing directory.

Downloads always work but uploads are hit & miss. Sometimes I just fire up Icy Term and upload it that way. I don't really intend to fully use offline mail, but it's a nostalgia trip for sure.

I know what the upload problem is! There's a bug in the DOSBox telnet implementation, it doesn't correctly escape FF bytes when sending (FF is also the IAC code used for telnet protocol negotiation). I've patched this in my copy of DOSBox-X but haven't upstreamed it anywhere yet. The good news is it's an easily solvable issue.

I really like using Telix, it's pretty quick and responsive. I have a patch that takes away the nag screens but it still says "Unregistered"
in the bottom left of the screen.

I am running Telix 3.22 and found a keygen for it, I think it's the same version I remember running back in the day so I've been happy with it.

I'm using v2024.03.01 of dosbox-x-sdl2 on a M2 MacBook Air running Sonoma 14.5.

I wasn't using AT+NET1 before to initialize, but tried just now and still get the linenoise & it's still slower than dosbox or dosbox-staging.

Here's an example of the linenoise (with AT+NET1):
https://ibb.co/V37VmZh

It's not constant, but it's enough to be annoying. I just had to hit enter to refresh the screen and it went away.

I haven't actually been using the phonebook, but now that you mention it
I realize I am silly not to. I just manually type in ATDTaddress to connect, for the boards that don't fit into the Telix dialing directory.

I seem to remember using a script or something to auto log me into the boards, there's a spot for a password in the dialing directory but I can't recall how to get that to send. I should probably RTFM but it's 10:42pm and I'm tired.

If we could get past the slower connection & linenoise I'd be willing to try.

Air running Sonoma 14.5.

Oh cool, that's the same version I'm running, I'm even on an M2 Macbook also. Have you built DOSBox-X from source? Really what I'm asking is, would you prefer to apply patches and build DOSBox-X yourself, or should I send you my compiled DOSBox-X and you can try it out.

I wasn't using AT+NET1 before to initialize, but tried
just now and still get the linenoise & it's still slower
than dosbox or dosbox-staging.

The line noise is a new problem to me, I haven't encountered that before. I don't think it's related to the telnet protocol, it looks like data corruption or dropped bytes causing the ANSI sequences to not be interepreted correctly.

Here's an example of the linenoise (with AT+NET1):
https://ibb.co/V37VmZh

Thanks for the screenshot, it's an issue I haven't run into myself yet, but I think it should be solvable as DOSBox-X is working great on my M2 Macbook.

I seem to remember using a script or something to auto
log me into the boards, there's a spot for a password in
the dialing directory but I can't recall how to get that
to send. I should probably RTFM but it's 10:42pm and
I'm tired.

I also don't remember specifics of the Telix scripting, I think that entering the password in the dialing directory probably makes it available to whatever login script we select for the BBS. I haven't tried a Telix login script in 30 years though so don't listen to me for any useful information. :)

If we could get past the slower connection & linenoise
I'd be willing to try.

I think we can solve these issues. The slower connection may require another patch to DOSBox-X but I think I have an idea how it would work and it would be an interesting feature to add.

Another option - DOSBox Staging can also be patched to fix uploads over telnet (by properly escaping the telnet IAC byte). It's a very small fix.

I had to type that imgbb URL like a caveman into this
Telix window in Dosbox-staging! ;)

Yeah copy and paste is definitely a huge feature to have. :)

I've been playing a lot in DOSBox (mostly DOSBox-X but checking other versions here and there) and am more than willing to help get things running optimally, if you're willing to spend some time troubleshooting and testing some patches. I've been kinda waiting for someone to come along and run into some of the same issues I had, to find the best way to fix it and to test it well.

OK that sounds good! If you want I can call into your BBS and upload it, or I can put it on Another Millennium BBS for you, or I can attach it to netmail, or send you a Dropbox link.. Whatever's easiest for you. :)

I was going to check in on Northern Realms to see if I'd have upload access, but I am not sure what port to connect to. And I didn't find it in telnetbbsguide - I think that's the first time I haven't found a board listed there.

A dropbox link would probably be easiest, please & thanks. Not sure if you'd want to post the link here, or a netmail works as well.

I used to have a public facing BBS, at first it was Mystic, then it was Telegard, then it was Mystic again. Now it's just a linux VPS running hpt & binkd. I use Mystic just as a message reader for the JAM bases.

One of these days I might put Telegard back up as a public facing BBS, I still have it on a powered down VM on a NUC here at the house but I need to figure out if we're moving before getting that all set back up.
