====== Terminals ====== **Terminals** are 1980s era text-only computers used throughout [[organizations#Emtanon]]. They appear in two aspects: * Monitoring [[#in-universe terminals]] to gain insight into the organization * Interacting with the universe via remotely accessible terminals on the [[https://emtanon.com/portal/|Emtanon portal]] ===== In-universe terminals ===== These terminals are distinguished by unique display colors. All of them are used mainly for [[#iris]]. ==== Green terminal ==== Located at Emtanon HQ in Room 101. It is used by [[characters#Esprit Boursicot]] and was previously her only terminal. It is known that it runs on //sysop// privileges; it has commands and programs not available elsewhere. [[agent_systems#AS32]] provides [[wp>Slow-scan_television|SSTV]] of this terminal by dialing ''3#''. {{ :terminals:green.png|}} ==== Amber terminal ==== Located at Emtanon HQ in Room 104. This is an auxiliary terminal intended for visitors to the HQ. [[agent_systems#AS32]] provides [[wp>Slow-scan_television|SSTV]] of this terminal by dialing ''10#''. It is also possible to control it using the [[https://emtanon.com/portal/|Emtanon portal]]. Judging by reactions to signs of remote use, the HQ employees are unaware of this. {{ ::terminals:amber.png?320|}} ==== Red terminal ==== This is [[characters#Dr. J Marvin Blackweather]]'s terminal. As we found out in message [[xorfs:18300-18349#section18349|18349]], he specifically requested the red color because he considered the default green "stupid". [[agent_systems#AS32]] provides [[wp>Slow-scan_television|SSTV]] of this terminal by dialing ''11#''. {{ :terminals:red.png|}} ==== Aqua terminal ==== This terminal is located at the Pacific command in Hilo, Hawaii. It played a key role in [[:events:Operation Spice]] and [[events:FACILITY Redemption]], in both of which we impersonated the Pacific command. Later, after receiving strange iris messages, we deemed this terminal compromised. On February 21, 2024, it was taken offline by [[characters#AIR1]] and [[characters#MO5]] to hide evidence of our usage. The terminal was restored on June 7, 2024. {{ :terminals:aqua.png?320|}} ===== Commands ===== The following basic commands are listed by ''help'' and have help text: * ''help'' * ''list [+all]'': Lists the files in the working directory.
