Here are a few features that I think would make the next release of WinQVT/NET better: 1. Have a slow-paste switch. Some mainframes can't accept pasted text at TCP/IP speeds. Most terminal emulation packages have a way to adjust the pacing for ascii uploads, which is exactly what a paste in WinQVT/NET is. I can still do it in NCSA Telnet by diabling Fast Paste in the PIF file. 2. Support the alt-T command. In NCSA Telnet this command sends a standard FTP initialization string to the main- frame (ftp -n pcip). This would be a perfect complement to v. 1.5's FTP server capability. (Come to think of it, I'll probably end up programming one of my function keys to do this.) 3. Have Alt-A bring up the Telnet Services dialog box. I suppose I've gotten used to NCSA Telnet. Anyone else think of more stuff to add? -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Iskandar Taib | The only thing worse than Peach ala Internet: NTAIB@AQUA.UCS.INDIANA.EDU | Frog is Frog ala Peach Bitnet: NTAIB@IUBACS ! -------------------------------------------------------------------------------

A nice browser-type box for file selection and an option for hostname and printer name would be just fine, thank you very much. -- Daniel Poirot poirot@aio.jsc.nasa.gov Lockheed C07A "The mind is a terrible thing." 2400 NASA Rd. 1 tel: (713)483-8793
