No, I can't, for multiple reasons.

The X server is only for localhost. There's no PPP service (it costs
extra beyond the $19/55 per month I've been paying for shell with VT100
dialup access), and the modem doesn't work at all currently (it got
wedged into a state where it isn't online but thinks it is so there's
no way to get into command mode to reset it, and even when removed from
all electric power for many hours the modem still thinks it's online).
Do you know to fix a XIrcom "RealPort Ethernet+Modem 56 REM56G-10"
without any money to pay for an expert to work on it?

I much prefer text-only access except when I actually want to see some
visual image that can't be rendereed as ASCII art, such as images from
NASA/ESA space probes/telescopes etc., or e-photos of women to meet.
The public library allows only one hour of InterNet access per day, and
it has only MS-IE available, complete with incessant overlaying pop-up
ads that can't be dismissed. (ALT-TAB seems to be the only way to get
back to what I was trying to work on, but there's no way to get back
the text I was typing when the pop-up had already came up but human
response time is such that a lot of typing continues until I notice the
pop-up is eating all my type-in.)
ObLisp: Is there anyone who would like to try online (CGI) demos of
some of the Lisp software I've written? Is there anyone who would like
to see a list of software I've written, some of which has already been
converted to CGI demo but most of which I won't bother to convert until
and unless somebody shows an interest in seeing it?
Is there anybody other than myself who has a list of software they've written?
