Introduction (What is FidoNet?)
Because the text is displayed in a
different way, the software you use to
access Prestel may not be suitable for
calling bulletin boards. You need
software capable of Teletype, VT100 or
ANSI emulation. Of these, ANSI is the
best one to go for, as it allows colour
to be used.
Most bulletin boards have only one
phone line: this can be a problem as
you're likely to get the engaged tone
when you call! Also, the further away
the board, the more costly the call.
This is where FidoNet comes in.
