A plea for help: I am using a 19200 baud connection to our Amdahl and
require excellent vt-100 emulation on my Mac Plus and should-arrive-soon
Mac II. I like Red Ryder but it only supports baud rates to 9600, and
even at that speed the text to screen transfer rate is retarded. I have
tried MacTerminal but don't like its lack of features I'm used to in
RR: Kermit and Xmodem transfers, option or control buttons, macros, macro-
keys, text file transfer preferences, &c. I do like MacT's text to screen
rate, though. But nothing seems to actually approach the speed of
a dumb terminal.
Can anyone recommend to me an emulation program which gives me Red Ryder's
functionality (or more) and high screen writing rates, at 19200 baud? Please
reply directly to me. If this info has already been posted somewhere else
I'll go to it, otherwise if there is interest I'll post a summary in this
group.

Red Ryder 10.0 supports baud rates up to 57,600 baud. Perhaps you could try it. I don't know how well it performs at these speeds, as I only got to use a friend of mine's copy (yes, I know, I will send in me damn money... :-). You might want to find someone with a copy and try it out. - Alan
