     I used to log in using Lynx with a Unix Shell account, running KBCOM  
in graphics mode with the ISO font in Nitros9 (allowed me to display all  
of the copyright symbols and others properly on a real Coco 3) through  
dial up. There was a KA9Q package that apparently let you use SLIP and  
actually directly connect to the net through dialup and do FTP, newsgroups  
and mail, but the program always crashed my TC-9 hard, so I never ran it.
