I downloaded bterm linux from Kim's page. However it keeps saying:

bash: ./bterm: No such file or directory

the directory contents are:

bbbs.001 bbbs.002 bterm btermcfg BTERM.doc LICENSE.txt scripts sysop.gui
sean@sean-K53U:~/bterm$

I tried btermcfg with the same result

Are the files executable? Check with `ls -l`.

Hello Sean,

I downloaded bterm linux from Kim's page. However it keeps saying:

bash: ./bterm: No such file or directory

I think that's because you have 3bit executibles on a 64bit system?

bterm is a copy of BBBS and likewise btercfg is a copy of bcfg4. Copy the lastest bbbs to bterm and bcfg4 to btermcfg into your BTERM directory and you'll be good to go.

Ttyl :-),

I will have to try that. Although in a way, I have by passed the problem by using iterm2 on my macBook with a trigger to download and upload mail files

If you run `file bterm`, what does it say? It sounds
like the wrong ELF brand.

32bit executable on a 64 bit system. Will move a copy of bbbs here, Though I wish there was bterm for Mac
