I use UNIX Pro-YAM from Omen Technology, written by Chuck Forsberg
<omen!caf>.  It works great, and you can program it to do anything.
It's about $150, and worth it.  End of plug.

Hi all,

What do you all use as a comm program in Unix (Esix)?  I've
been using pcomm for the past week or so, but am getting pretty
fed up with the problems it has.  It frequently goes into
"funny character mode" whenever line noise is encountered, doesn't
always dial the modem properly, and leaves the terminal in a funny
state on exit.

I'm interested in hearing what programs you'all use, and where 
they can be found (I don't have ftp access, but can do archive-
server requests and/or login&download (HST)).

Thanks!
bill
