Thank you Joachim, this looks remarkably simple, I will install v1.3.4 tomorrow. Thanks also for the extra effort to let the dev. version install with a different namespace, it will make using different versions trivially easy!

Update: (I made time to send quick feedback)

Dev version 1.3.4 installed and starts without any issues.

I am using PIL-Box v2.1 and connecting at 230400 Bps also works every time. Some quick throughput testing shows the loop runs at nearly the same speed as ILPer v2.2, perhaps a bit slower.

However keyboard in the remote terminal is not working, while it was OK on 1.3.3.

After running PILTERM, I see the screen clear and the cursor appears in the top-left, but commands from the PC keyboard do not seem to be processed, but device kbd is OK, and all display output appears in the terminal. FYI - I am using KBD:B LEX file from the installed FORTH ROM.

Some commands I enter on the PC keyboard are buffered, and sometimes after pressing [ON][ON] on the device, those commands are received and processed by the 71, but I have not been able to reproduce a reliable sequence to exactly characterize when and how this occurs.

I will update this post again if/when I find a reproducible test sequence.

Very nice Joachim, thanks again.
