[comp.sys.mac] comm program query

carl (Carl Tollander) (01/18/88)

I'm still trying to decide on a communications program for my Mac II at
home.  Its down to either Microphone or VersaTerm (the non-fancy one).
If anyone has info on the following two issues, I'd be interested
to hear from you.

	1. How well do they work under MultiFinder?

	2. How easy is it to add additional file transfer protocols,
	   (e.g. adding Kermit to Microphone)?

I would also like to have the capability to handle two modem sessions
simultaneously (though not necessarily simultaneously active) via the same
program (one telephone, one packet radio - plugged in different ports).
Can ANY communication package for the currently available for the Mac II
do this?  (Being new to the Mac, I don't know whether starting up two copies
of the same program under MultiFinder is an option.)  Cost is an issue.
