I have a couple of term programs which will do all the above quite
well.  ZMP has the Zmodem protocol and is VERY easy to configure,
plus easy to configure and use macros.  Plus I have another program
called "Qterm" which has a very good script language, an VT100
emulation.  I have had a great deal of luck with Qterm in
transferring stuff from our local UNIX system because it deals with
the CR/LF dilemma so easily.  Plus it has a few other neat things,
plus the whole shmear is memory resident.  I will configure both
programs for use with Kaypro.  May take a while, but I promise, I
will do it.  In the meantime, have fun!  (or at least try...)
