INSTRUCTIONS FOR USING A SPECIAL TERMINAL CLIENT
(similar to a Java client or any other type of client you may have
installed on your computer) to
access the BBS: With this BBS software you will be able to run most
any terminal client. These terminal client will give your more options and
allow you to resize and make the viewing window larger. I would suggest
you consider using Wildcat Navigator for connecting to the games. The Wildcat
Navigator is better than the telnet software standard on Windows XP and it is still
FREE. You can
download and then install the Wildcat Navigator terminal client by clicking the link below (it is about a
4meg download): ftp://ftp.santronics.com/wildcat/wcnav/wcnav.EXE INSTRUCTIONS FOR SETTING UP WILDCAT NAVIGATOR to access the BBS (click here)
