Web Terminal
A real terminal in your browser, talking to the BBS's local
Telnet listener via xterm.js over WebSockets.
Where
/term/ on the web UI. Logged-in users only by default; sysop can
allow guest access.
What you get
A full CP437/ANSI terminal — the same UI you'd see in SyncTERM
or NetRunner, rendered in the browser:
- 80×25 default; resizable to whatever your viewport allows
- ANSI color, bold, blink (animated)
- Mouse-driven copy/paste
- Doors run inline, including DOS doors via the DosBridge
Auth
The web app generates a one-shot token tied to your session,
opens an internal rlogin to localhost:513 with your username,
and pipes both ends. Your password isn't re-prompted.
Why use it
- Zero install: no telnet client needed
- Mobile-friendly: works on phone browsers
- Useful as a sysop tool: jump into a user's experience to
reproduce something they're seeing - Sometimes the only thing that gets through restrictive
firewalls (your gym, an airport, …)
