■ NOTE: This is a BETA release, we make no warranty that this will work.
■ A VGA/SVGA video adaptor is required.
■ 4.5 megs of HD are required to operate. (BETA ONLY)
■ A MS compatible mouse is required.
■ 16550A UART IS A MUST! (or at least is very suggested SEE IO SUPPORT)

Welcome to FXTERM v0.01ß this is the first public BETA of the our
new terminal package. FXTERM has been designed to take full advantage of
the new graphics standard Tel-FX, also by Hamilton TeleGraphics.
Please read this short BETA document carefully.

FXTERM supports the following video modes:
640x480x16 (256k VGA)
640x480x256 (512k VGA)
800x600x256 (512/1024K VGA)
1024x768x256 (1024K VGA)
The following video cards are supported directly:
- TSENG ET3000, PARADISE, VIDEO 7, ATI, TSENG4 ET4000, TRIDENT, VESA
- If you don't have one of these cards check your video card manual
and disk for a VESA driver to install before calling for SVGA
graphics.
FXterm will try to start in 640x480x256 but will drop to 640x480x16 if it
has to. The following command line switches will attempt to force a
certain video mode:
-16col (640x480x16)
-H800 (800x600x256)
-H1024 (1024x768x256)

IO Support
────────────
A 16550A UART is a must for standard communications above 9600. The
term will still work, and may work perfectly without one. If you
experience skipped charaters, CRC errors, or grable, it is likely
because you do not have one. It may not be required, but is recommended,
especially in a lan environment or on a slow computer. One will also
notice speed increases in file transfers with a 16550A installed. The
chip itself is about $12.00 or with an IO card about $30-45.
FXTERM supports 3 IO modes, UART, FOSSIL or DIGI. Please only
use FOSSIL or DIGI if you have such drivers or DEVICES. DIGI requires
that the XIDOS driver be installed and that DIGI ports start at 1.
