SyncTERM 0.9.2 --- Release Date: September 24, 2008\
\
\f1\b NOTES FOR MACINTOSH USERS
\f0\b0 \
\
\
\f1\b \ul For The Record
\f0\b0 \ulnone \
\
I am not the developer of SyncTERM. I am merely a casual user of SyncTERM who has helped the developer, Stephen Hurd, by reporting bugs and problems, which have helped him to make SyncTERM more compatible with the Macintosh platform. I wrote this help file to assist new Macintosh users of SyncTERM in using the program. While SyncTERM does not currently have a beautiful Macintosh interface, nevertheless, functionality-wise, it is very good. In fact, to my knowledge, none of the "pretty boy" Macintosh telnet clients display BBS ANSI graphics as well as SyncTERM.\

\f1\b \ul Contacting The Developer

All technical questions regarding SyncTERM should be directed to:\

\
If you have any questions regarding using the Macintosh version of SyncTERM, please write to Stephen Hurd first. If he is unable, or too busy, to assist you, you may then write to me at working_classing_peon@yahoo.com, and I will try to help you if I can; but keep in mind that I am not a programmer or a developer in any way.\
\
I may update this help file depending on any questions I may receive.\
\
Please consider visiting our Christian BBS, (Armageddon BBS), by using the domain name endtimeprophecy.org.\
\
Thanks!\
