I haven't read any documentation on this, and I thought I'd read most of the braille manual, (though I must admit that as a reference manual this leaves a lot to be desired as the contents page is not reliable, and I'm hoping that FS will agree that they should replace these as not fit for purpose.) To re-iterate what I'm after, I'd like to be able to use the BL (M20) as a terminal (preferably emulating a VT100 or similar), which I could connect to the serial port of a Linux box. Presumably there must be some functionality of this type for use when connecting to 'bulletin boards' etc. via modems, but I can't find much about this either. On a related topic, how are you supposed to use the 'help' file. As a new user, I'm struggling with a good way to look things up in it. Supposing I want to know about remote mode for instance.....
