I have used both Telemate and Procomm + version 2.0. Just got Procomm + v2.0. It is awesome. For $40, you can't beat Telemate. For $100+ you can't beat PROCOMM + v2.0. If you already have PROCOMM the upgrade is $39, a first choice. Bob R.

Thanks for supplying this comparison. Can anyone compare either of the above
with Telix? This is shareware that comes packed into John Dvorak's book about
Telecomm.

Yes, it crashes quite often on my 386-25. And the wierd thing is after every crash, 2 of my files, dosedit.com and mouse.com, gets overwritten by portions of Telemte's scroll-back buffer. There could be more files that were corrupted but I haven't found anything else yet. I really liked Telemate but for the above problem and and the fact that it's really memory hungry. The multitasking features are excellent but now that I'm using Desqview, I've gone back to Telix or Commo when I need more memory. -- -----/ _ _ \-------------------------------------------------------------------- | o o | Eugene Mok s907396@minyos.xx.rmit.oz.au (Melbourne OZ) \ ^ / eugene@pogo.ai.mit.edu (USA) ------\ o /---------------------------------------------------------------------

Now that I have Desqview, I find that Procomm Plus (2.0) is serving my needs. Still would like to have the mouse support and editor features that TM has, but oh well... :) TTYL Chris -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Christopher Blaise - blaise@emily.uvm.edu "I just wanna be loved... ]]]]]]]]]]]]] Fido: 1:325/107 is that so WRONG?!" -------------------------------------------------------------------------
