if we're sharing, termux for android with telnet and iconv installed is the nicest portable solution in my opinion.. with:

telnet bbs.host.com | iconv -f cp437

obviously if the bbs handles unicode detection well enough, you could leave out iconv.

but a 40some line bbs message reader on a mobile phone is kinda nice :)

.... That's not a bug, it's an undocumented feature
