Hello world. This is my first message on the net so please, be merciful if this question has been asked/disputed/beat to death but I am currently handing down my 520ST w/SS drive to my brother to make room on my desk for a Mega 4 w/Megafile 30, 24pin printer, the works. As I go down my list of to-be-aquired programs, I see 'terminal program'. I would just like some recommendations on what people think is THE BEST terminal program for the ST. I am currently using UniTerm and have found it to be an extremely useful and powerful program. I will soon be sending off my registration fee off to Simon Poole - he deserves much more than he is asking! Anyway, I've read the ads about MasterLink. I really like the idea of having background scripts and down- loading. If Simon implements that then I will have no second thoughts about going with UniTerm, but that's got to be a lot of work to implement. Is MasterLink out yet and if it is, does it support Tek and 132x49 mode? Is it a solid program? Emulation is very important. I have to work on the campus computers on almost a daily basis and I'm taking graphics next quarter so the Tek emulation is a must, especially when it gets <30 degrees! Thanks for ANY replies.
