Yeah, but most importantly, has Watson gone back and eliminated the
brain-dead transfer protocals?  Serious, 10 minutes to transfer
an 80K file at 2400 baud isn't at all realistic.  Hence why I'd
switch to ANY terminal program over Red Ryder.

Sadly enough, ZTerm 0.8 added features so that it'd transfer
better with Red Ryder hosts/Red Ryder.  Seems to me that Red
Ryder should be fixing it's own problems instead of relying
on other programmers to fix Red Ryders....
