Anyone here use SyncTERM for CBM/PETSCII emulation when connecting to C64 or C128 boards? If yes, I have a request of you: compare the SyncTERM v1.0 C64 or C128 "screen modes" with those in the current v1.1b (beta) and let us (the SyncTERM dev-team) know *which* color representation best reflects what you would expect to see in a CBM/PETSCII terminal. Here are some screen shot comparisons (C64 screen mode) if you just want to peek and comment quickly: SyncTERM 1.0 screen shot: https://1drv.ms/u/s!ApZPvWcrEaRQvJl-cu1s0ogYogzkYg SyncTERM 1.1b (current) screen shot: https://1drv.ms/u/s!ApZPvWcrEaRQvJl9cli-mEJjXu9k4g If you're not sure where to get SyncTERM for your own use, v1.0 (the latest official release) can be found at https://sourceforge.net/projects/syncterm/files/latest/download and the current v1.1b can downloaded (or built from source) at http://syncterm.net/ SyncTERM 1.1b fixes multiple PETSCII (and other unrelated) issues but also introduces some other new problems you may notice, so it could be good to keep v1.0 installed/on-hand. The reason I ask here about the color palette changes in SyncTERM v1.1b is that SyncTERM v1.0's color representation reminds *me* of my own Commodore BBS days, but someone suggested that was because I didn't have the brightness adjusted correctly on my television and the current SyncTERM v1.1b color representation more accurately reflects the true C64 and C128 color palettes. The input of experienced/current Commodore users would be appreciated by the SyncTERM dev-team.
