Greetings,
I am looking for a PD/SW communications program for the Mac
for a group of _users_, not programmers. I heard that Zterm was
well thought of a little over a year ago, but haven't kept up
with the newsgroup. Any recommendations for or against would
be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance. David Oury

I've been using ZTerm a little. It seems to be a relatively easy-to-use
program, but some parts need work. Using it with more than one dial-up
is non-intuitive, and I've heard (but not experienced) of problems with the
z-modem downloading. I use a networked machine with Telnet more, but if I
go back to mainly dial-ups I'll probably send in the SW fee for ZTerm.
It's much better than qvt.
