If anyone has any technical information on any of these protocols, please
send me email or post something.  I have written a comm program for my 
personal use, since it provides nothing more than any of the other shareware
programs out there now.  It does have terminal emulation and several file
transfer protocols.  Anding multiple sessions, is something I am very 
interested in if I could find the specs and a program on the unix side.

Please email the information soon, since my last final is Friday evening,
and I will leave that evening.

Thanks
