Having recently rejoined the Apple world, I'm out of touch with what
is available software-wise... I'm looking for recommendations on
available terminal programs for the gs. Anyone know of any good ones?
We need something that will do good emulation (VT52, VT100, or any
other reasonable type), and will do effective file transfer. Ymodem
Batch or anything else that supported batched file transfer support
would be excellent, but anything other than just plain old text would
be useable.
If the program had a built in scripting language to at least allow
auto-login to a system on boot, it would be a plus, but not a
necessary requirement.
This doesn't seem to be difficult, but local vendors are pretty
much on the cutting edge of brain-death. If I'm even able to
explain to them _what_ a terminal program _is_, they get completely
lost as soon as I start asking about features. And these are the
expert companies, making me very uneasy to approach the run of the
mill software stores... So, I approach the net... :-)
Email please. (Thanks in advance)
