While we are on the subject...

I have a user that would like to use his C-64 as a remote terminal on
our SCO Xenix system...and I know -nothing- about C-64's.

Would someone suggest:

	1. A good Public Domain or shareware communcations program
	   for the C-64 that provides decent terminal emulation
	   (I need to use termcap for his applications) 

	2. A new or used 1200 or 2400 bps modem for the C-64
	   Can I use a standard external modem with a special
	   cable or is a special type of modem/adaptor required?

Thanks in advance to all.  Regards,
