Color on Cyber1 is available when you use the Pterm program to connect using port 8005. This is the "ASCII" connection port and accepts a wider range of terminal capabilities including paint (area fill), color, local fonts, and "fine grid touch". The default connection when you downloaded Pterm was the 5004 port, which is the "classic" port and has only monochrome capability.
Wow, I'm in awe of your knowledge of this system, Joe! How can I download the color Pterm program? I'd like to check it out. Are you very familiar with the CRPGs I discussed in the piece? If so, I'd love to learn more about them.
