OK.
From there, can you press the $? It should bring up another prompt. Then press C to connect.
If you want to look at what else you can do, press the ? key.
$ C should connect you to the server.
Let me know if that works for you. If you don't get anything, there might be some other things to tweak in SWATH.
Hmmm I should recruit you to help me in TradeWars Academy

I love users- they keep me in cash.
Oweirdo- tell me exactly what you put into the TWXProxy for the address.
I would ask you to take out the "telnet://" part. and just use bbs.darksideresearch.com and put in 2002 for the port #.

Glad I can be of help. Please let me know if you have any more questions that I can answer.
If you want to run TWX scripts out of Swath, you'll need to put the location of the TWXproxy\scripts in the Edit>Preferences Scripts section.
Then you'll be able to access them fromthe SWATH GUI.

Or forgetting their passwords.
While working at a hospital, I'd get calls from people every monday, wednesday, and friday. Needing their passwords reset...

Lol, yes that's another one I forgot about. Usually Mondays were the worse for that.

I had one guy who had is PW taped to the bottom of his keyboard.
And another guy who called me because he couldn't log onto the system from a separate computer. I asked him what he was typing for his username, and he didn't know! Mind you, he had only been working at the company for TWO EFFING YEARS! </rant> Sigh... At least I am needed!

True, then we'd have to rely on <gulp> other Network Administrators
