I'm sorry, but I disagree.  I don't have an answer for the original poster, but
I think telix was designed for just more than the BBS'er in mind.  Why do
all of the other terminal options exist, then??

It is my comm program of choice (even after the PC+ I purchased).  I need to
RTFM better, but right now I think Kermit has a better VT100 emulation.  Other
than that, I like it the best.

Oh, by the way, I'm not new to this game.  I was one of the beta testers for
Qmodem, but John lost my support with his 4.0 release.
