Long ago I downloaded and used a good program called "Electric Cottage" from
QuantumLink - it was shareware and supported both protocols named above (and
was a good fast xmodem).  I expect that it is still available on Qlink (I
just don't belong there anymore).  The only drawback to this very nice program
is that it is a 'dumb' 80 column terminal - no protocol like vt100 supported.

It also includes some very nice features like buffer capture/send/load/save
(with text editor), conversion of BASIC text to PRG format.
