Software

For PC/Linux I would recommend Syncterm if you would like to use the ANSI and vt100 menus.
If you wish to use the BBC Mode 7 menus then you can now use either a web client or the Brandy Matrix Mode 7 Terminal client. 
On a BBC Micro I would recommend any Comms package (the most popular being
Termulator, Commstar I or II) but also works well with the Simple Terminal listing.
For an Acorn Archimedes ArcTerm7 is known to support Mode 7 graphics over terminal.

On sign up select Y to Linefeeds 

Remember this is Terminal that Supports Mode 7, it is not viewdata and consequently this will not work correctly with a Viewdata client like Telstar or IcyTerm

Client Information

A terminal emulator like Syncterm for x86 hardware
For a connection from a genuine BBC Micro I'd use Commstar II (filter off for colour)
