[comp.sys.mac.apps] FTP & terminal emulators-which R good?

sdbeck@mac.cc.macalstr.edu (05/10/91)

The recent thread on terminal emulation programs was interesting, but
it left me with a question. How (if at all) is White Knight at FTP?
FYI, I'm calling up my schools VAX, which is running VMS.
Or should I just get VersaTerm? Versions over $100 are out; thanks!

e-mail fine, but people seem to like this topic, so post away!

Dan,

I use Red Ryder, (WK's predecessor) to connect to an MTS system and thence to
ftp sites.  It works fine.  I use the VT102 emulation, and have a few macro
keys coded to help select sites, etc, and to get/put files.  no sweat, and easy
to do.

Luck

I personally use Zmodem. I couldn't get White Knight to do a 19200 transfer 
between our VAX and my SE...
