[NTLK] Something to do with the eMate and Modem

[SC]

Yes, modem.

 

I was catching up on some Apple II newsgroup stuff and came across a post
about a person potentially using a dialup connection (for example the $24/yr
text Chebucto Community Net in Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada) and then
automatically getting weather like what is available at
ftp://ftp2.bom.gov.au/anon/gen/fwo/IDN10064.txt

 

So now I'm thinking that it would be cool to do the same with the eMate (and
NSBASIC?). Not using the internet connectivity and weather add-on we are
familiar with at UNNA, but something potentially "lighter weight".

 

All thoughts appreciated on the subject.

 

Thanks.
