Can syncterm be used as a native program to login to 
a configured BBS in the dialing directory? 

I use telegate to login to a few bbs but would like to
be able to get the full ANSI experience, when logging
in.

I have determined a command line that works as I want, but
have not been able to determine the correct settings to 
have it run. No error just hangs when I try to access it
through external door menu.

Is there a specific screen mode I should use to allow it
to be called from the BBS? I have read about the different
screen modes curses, sdl, x11, ansi stdout (although this
didn't seem to generate the same ANSI experience as curses
and other modes).

Curiously.
