I was watching Freedos' channel on how we used to compute on Unix in the 70s, 80s and 90s and he has used this very period correct awesome terminal called Retro Cool Term. And it is cool except it doesn't simulate slow baudrates. Which I hacked in, and I will show you do that process.
The patch just the BAUDRATE slow down (compile time) and CTRL-C patch. (The UI we well release that once it is actually finnised)

![CODING LIKE ITS 1989
We will be coding a Turbo On/Off switching tool for an old Compaq, based on Adrians Digital Basement episodes.
We will learn how to:
-load registers
-if then else statements (when arg is 0 then turbo off else, turbo on)
-read form memory
-write text to screen
-write to IO ports
The code we will create:

The dosbox TASM development environment, to code along:

THIS NEEDS TO GO IN YOUR DOSBOX CONFIG FILE
[autoexec]
# Lines in this section will be run at startup.
# You can put your MOUNT lines here.
mount c ~/dosbox
