TERM from Century Software does it too.  And more important for our uses,
it works the same on PC-DOS, UNIX, XENIX, CTOS, VMS and SUNOS (aux comming)
and McIntosh

The interface is consistent between all of the environments... A very
complete communications system.  I use it every day in support of customers
systems.

* Term offers full emulation of VT102, VT52, VT220, Televideo 912/925, Wyse 50
  ANSI 3.64 (plus some others).

* Both Batch and Interactive file transfers using xmodem, ymodem, zmodem,
  kermit and terms own termCRC.

* Built it dialing routines for Hayes, Racal-Vadic, Smartcat, Tandy, AT&T 4024,
  Microcom SX, and ability to write your own for other modems.

* UUCP-compatible lock files, and handles bi-directional (dialin/dialout)
  communication lines without conflict with UNIX login

* Multiple Modem and/or phone support to provide alternate paths

* Acess to remote modem servers over Ethernet

* An extensive (and extensible) script language that gives ability to create
  true distributed applications.  They can run any system command on either
  end of the communications link.

* Remapable control keys if they conflict with other applications.
