CCGMS and number entry

[shawn.henson73@gmail.com]

Is there a trick or format to put the web address in the "number" section?
i can connect fine manually with the ATDT commands.  just when using the address book, doesnt seem to get past "dialing"

OR is there a recommended term program ?

I don't think CCGMS allows you to enter non-number characters in its phone book. Most people store URLs in the WiModem's phone book and then just use that.

ok. Thank you

It seems that versions from 2020 and later support the phone book for URLs. The latest version has 40/80 column support on the C64.

hi

I am using the CCGMS 2016a version from Craig's github

i am not clear on what you mean by "Web address". but I can put the telnet address in the phone field. you need to change the modem to 1650/Hayes to make it dial. I have not tried any other modem setting, I just kept the first one that worked.
example in the the phone field for particlesbbs: particlesbbs.dyndns.org:6400


using the wimodem address book is also a good idea. I did not think of that.


I have also tried the CCGMS furture 0.2 from mist64 github. that works also with telnet address
same is true with alwyz 2017 and 2021 version


regards  and see you in one of the bbs
