JR-Comm 1.0 had a problem with certain 2091 controllers, the ones that hose
location zero with a non-zero value, this has been fixed in 1.01.  Other
than that problem all of the JR-Comm versions have run fine on my 2500/30.
JR-Comm 1.01 is adds a few new features (VT102 support) and fixes many bugs,
there should be a demo version floating around on a local BBS, if not
you can get one from the support BBS.
