^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ this is like ?
IMHO, in general the Melon architecture is somewhat incorrect, leading to a dead end.
The terminal and mailer have little in common (except only file transfer protocols), so why do them “under one roof”? And this table of messages
from the modem?

Uh-oh... What’s the problem for Scorpio?

Well, 4-6 cases is not “complexity” yet. :)

Good luck! Evgeny.

From Ilya Rubinchik To All 8 April 1998


Hi, my net friend, All!

People, please explain how to remove an image from a 3D floppy disk (5.25, 360k) in order to
run the software in writing? There are simply good things on old disks, but not a single
emulator handles flops :(
So I worked from Vaska on my Speckie:
:
Randomize usr 15619:rem:run
:
And emulators either hang or stop :(

[Team EliteNet] [IBM - BESTeam]
... BB, CUL, etc., in general, good for you, All!

Good health, Ilya! :)

Use Shalaev's Emulator! The coolest emulsion! :)

Goodbye to you!

Having sat down at the keyboard, I decided to draw a letter for you Anton.

Once I was in a museum and there, on an old, old stone, an ancient man carved that

EM>> this table of messages from the modem ?

DD> is for monitoring the communication session. bullshit? yes!
DD> You can turn off the monitor ;)
Yes? :))) Are you saying that character-by-character analysis of a string produced by a modem is cool?! Well, yes, cool - my USR336000 breaks down abruptly in the
auto-dial mode, since Melon does not know such a line, and therefore cannot understand
"why did he say that?"...

From Ilya Rubinchik To All 14 April 1998

People, there was such a ruckus on the echo tag - it’s called R-Type.
And there were 8 levels in it for almost the whole side of the hawala. So can you find it with all
levels? And how can these levels be loaded into jpp, for example?
