What's a good not-too-expensive communications program for Windows 3?
I have seen all the shareware ones but none of work too well on my
computer. At the moment I'm seriously thinking of getting Crosstalk
for Windows. It's reasonably priced in Australia. Any opinions on it?

Thanks...

I don't know what you've seen shareware so I'll just put in my two cents 
regarding what's available around here. Two I've looked at, one I would
consider registering. The one I like is called "unicom". It seems fairly
complete. IE Scripts, big dialing directory, full list of protocols, emulation.
The alternate is Mlink which only goes up to Ymodem and has no scripting.
