I wached "An idiot's guide to PyDriveWire, DWterm, and Telnet BBSing" on
ogStevieStrow at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=coAa2qeFJoE but I must
be worse then an idiot as I had now luck actually using telnet.

Possible Problems:

My Host is a Raspberry Pi running Java Drivewire on linux not
pyDriveWire on Windows like Stevie Strow used.

Also I run the bin file under HDB-DOS from Drive 0 on a Compact Flash
card in my Super IDE

I tried the BBS he shows I don't think it is running anymore.
I tried some other BBS's from the Telnet BBS Guide: at 
https://www.telnetbbsguide.com/
that was mentioned no luck.

I wanted to know if anyone else used DWTERM recently and what site they 
have been
able to get to with it also is my syntax correct.

At the DWTERM prompt I type ATD url:port

where url is replaced by the bbs url with no leading http://
and port is 23 unless the documentation for that BBS specify otherwise.

I am using DW TERMINAL V0.2 APRIL 10, 2020 by Michael Furman.

The error I get is FAIL 010 Unknown API 'ADT' 3
