I don't know if it still does, but Procomm used to have a really annoying quarter-second delay before it would do anything. Telix does not - the scripts run faster, video and disk operations are faster, and so on. 3) Procomm has more features, e.g. it can emulate some terminals that Telix can't. My recommendation: give Telix a try. It's the best comm program for BBS use that I've ever come across (commercial programs included). For more serious use, it is still very good; considering the price, it is absolutely amazing. (PLUG: I forget what Colin asks for registration, but if you use Telix, you ought to register. It's well worth $20 or whatever he wants). Dave Meyer
