Hi Jasen,

JB> have you tried all these?

JB> Procomm+           4.70    W31 W95
$149.95! and it's version 4.8 now.

JB> QModem Win95       2.1     W95 WNT
Find it for sale NEW anywhere and I'll be impressed.
JB> RipTerm            2.20    W95
$25 bucks and the windows version only supports telnet and win3.1
JB> Telemate           1.10    WIN
Can't find a sight for it.  Still $39 I suppose.
JB> Telix              1.15d   W95 W31
$79 Bucks
JB> WinRAMP            1.21    W95
35 bucks.
JB> Zoc                3.16    W95 OS2
$69 Bucks

I consider it one of Fidonet's greatest failings, in failing to get
the wonderful talent in Fidonet involved to come up with a reliable
decent term program for people to contact it.  I think William has
done a great job providing multiple versions to allow people to use
QWK systems on BBS's.  Too bad Fidonet's too busy arguing in fn_sysop
to collectively accomplish anything.

Much should also be stated for the Bananacom software package, that
was turned over to Freeware, but sadly did not support winmodems which
unfortunately are the default installation in most computers these
days.
