- telser.device ("telser") is a modem simulator over a TCP telnet/rlogin
- connection. It simulates basic `modem commands', so you can use
- telecommunication ("comm") programs over a network connection. To
- your comm program, it thinks it's talking to a modem. Terminal
- emulation, file transfers, scripting, etc. are all handled by your
- comm program. Connecting to a host is as simple as typing "ATDT
- abc.edu,23" or even simpler if you add the host to your comm's
- phonebook.
-
- telser supports most of the telnet/rlogin negotiation commands and
- options. For example, you may elect to notify the remote host on
- changes to your terminal emulation type, and window size. An
- intuitive "gadtools" graphical user interface is supplied to control
- your connections. You also have the option to automatically connect
- to a host after starting up your comm program. Instant logins at the
- click of a button!
-
- telser can also run in host mode, which means it would accept incoming
- telnet/rlogin calls. Calls may be tracked by telser's caller ID
- feature. You can easily set up a "multi-line" BBS over the internet!
-
- telser is capable of unlimited device units, which means you can have
- unlimited incoming and outgoing connections. It supports both TCP/IP
- packages on the Amiga, namely AmiTCP (tested with 3.0b2 and 4.0/4.1)
- and AS225r2.
