Can someone tell me what PRO-YAM is and how it differs from and compares
with PROCOMM? Also who distrbutes/sells it?

Just read any article by Chuck Forsberg (omen!caf), the author of PRO-YAM.
Either he'll figure out a way to plug it in the context of his comments,
or read his .signature!   :-)/2

Seriously though, he could give you the full scoop. I use it on SCO XENIX,
though the MSDOS version is notably quicker and more feature-laden due to
limitations imposed by XENIX.  It supports automated scripts, most
comm protocols, and the latest upgrades are available (almost on a daily
basis) with a phone call to his BBS.  I found the manual of a year ago
almost indecipherable, although I understand there is a new one available
which is much improved.
