Does anyone know of a terminal emulator for the Mac that supports
the copy and transparent print modes of typical terminals. The latest
version of Kermit for the PC does do this, but we've found none for
the Mac. Red Ryder has a menu command that turns on a copy print
mode, but we want one that can be turned on by a program running on
the host computer. What this effectively emulates is having a printer
hooked to the printer port of a terminal. This way software on the main
frame can be written to print to this printer. Its a very useful feature
to have and we need it for the Mac. In connection with this, we also need
to be able to transmit escape sequences to the printer while in copy
print mode so things like bold, underlining, etc., can be turned on
at the printer from the mainframe. If anyone knows of such a thing for
the Mac, let me know ASAP. Thanx.
