The Commodore 64 Door
-----------------------
Release Date: January 23, 1993
This software allows you to call Commodore 64 BBS systems in
the special C64-specific terminal mode commonly referred to as 'C/G
mode'. The entire C64 character sets are included, along with all features
of the standard C/G terminal emulation, with the added feature of 80
columns which is unavailable on most C64 terminal packages. Due to
the fact that the keyboards of the C64 and the Amiga are not identical,
many of the keys have to be substituted. This is explained in detail
in the Keys section of this document.
Options:
--------
Baud Rate - Choose between 300, 1200, 2400, and 9600. The default
is 2400.
Columns - 40 or 80 (40 is the standard for the C64, but some prefer
80 columns). The default is 80.
Duplex - Full duplex means no local echo (for calling BBSes). This
is the default.
- Half duplex means all characters entered from the keyboard
are echoed.
Keys:
-----
* Both Amiga keys act as the C= (Commodore) key on the C64 keyboard
* The F9 key acts as the home key (same as CTRL-S)
* The F10 key acts as the Clr key
* The ESC key acts as the Run/Stop key
* The \ (Backslash) key acts as the pound key on the C64 keyboard.
Actually, the C64 pound character and the standard \ character
have the same ascii code.
* The ^ key (Shift-6) acts as the C64's up arrow character
* Holding Shift and Amiga toggles cases, just like Shift and Commodore
on the C64 keyboard
* Both the backspace and DEL keys act as the C64's Inst/Del key
- The insert mode works too
* All the color keys and Reverse on/off codes are available
CTRL-1 to CTRL-8, and Amiga-1 to Amiga-8 are colors, CTRL-9
is reverse on, CTRL-0 is reverse off
* The HELP key enters the option menu
* The space bar and the enter key can be used to abort the QPD logo
You are free to distribute this software, but please include this doc
file with the archive when you upload it to BBSes.
This software was developed in Calgary, Alberta, Canada
