Does anybody >have a terminal program for Rainbow? > MS-DOS terminal programs for the Rainbow can be obtained by Anonymous FTP from Drycas.Club.CC.CMU.EDU, directory [ANONYMOUS.INFO-DEC-MICRO.COMM]. Don't try getting them by Email; it doesn't work. CP/M Kermit is also available for the Rainbow; other CP/M terminal programs held on Simtel20 should also be configurable for it. The CPM Users' Group years ago had a whole disk of Rainbow communications software which might be somewhere in PD2: on Simtel20. Christopher
