 Ni> I also tried running Telemate and Telix, my two favorte communication
 Ni> programs for DOS back in the day.  Telemate seems to work fairly well,
 Ni> though I saw some odd behavior with Telix.  With certain menus on my
 Ni> BBS, Telix seemed to be sending empty data, causing my BBS to re-draw
 Ni> the menu and sometimes to display the error "Unrecognized command ()",
 Ni> and sometimes the display just got very wonky.  Enabling & disabling the
 Ni> status bar seems to make a difference, too - Depending on whether the
 Ni> status bar is showing or not, I had problems on different menus on my
 Ni> BBS.  Has anyone set up Telix in DOSBox?

Telix in DOSBox would consistently garble ANSI screens on certain BBS's for
me. I ended up switching to Telemate and it worked a bit better.

Now that I have a WiModem232, I wonder if its modem/tcp/ip emulation is
better than what DOSBox uses and would fix the issues (or make them worse.)
