    He just got it hooked up so give him time. :D Welcome!

    I simply haven't had the time. Between correcting errors on the bbs and my university classes, I don't have much free time.
    I'll announce it next month xD

    Goodness, I remember those days. I still have nightmares about university classes, and I graduated over 30 years ago! :O

    The BBS and the networks will still be here when you have free time. ;)

    Hi, I still don't know why I decided to study software engineering, considering how peaceful it was not having to touch a book :P

    I'm finishing a small web server in spartan, since I couldn't find one, as a simple class project, and creating a browser; I haven't seen one for the console.

    LOL, I often questioned why I got into IT but, in the end, it was not a bad thing. ;)

    Is spartan a programming language or a technology type?

    Hi, it's a small language like html but for small web. The advantage is its simplicity, and for older computers with very little RAM, it's a real boon. It doesn't require TLS or any secure connections. Just text.

    A tiny browser.

    I haven't been able to find one that works for me; gelim, spt, there are several, but under bsd, no way, there's no way. There are some for linux, but for the console...

    The idea is to port this simple program to amiga, amstrad cpc, spectrum, and other retro computers.

    I already have the web server set up, but I was missing a browser.

    Wow that sounds like a pretty cool project! Hope you are able to find, or build, what you are looking for.
