I wouldn't mind trying Telemate - I must try and figure out how to use
the EARN listserver in Europe - I can't remote FTP and haven't yet had
time to figure out how to get the mailer to accept an earn trickle
address - help apreciated. :-)

But that was an aside .. I started some years ago using Procomm and am
now on to Procomm Plus - a very good program. Recently I got hold of
Telix 3.12 and have found it much better than procomm in most respects -
most of the alt key sequences are the same as procomm and yes you can
remap the keyboard just like procomm. The built in ZMODEM of Telix is
just great. The kermit isn't so good - I have been unable to get it
working to my Telecom Gold (Dialcom in the states?) e-mail box whereas
the procomm kermit works fine. However, Telecom gold is a little
tempremental - I can get XMODEM or YMODEM working either!! The ONLY
thing that works is Procomm's kermit :-)
