I paid my fee on this one too. It looked like something that has potential.
Five months later... it STILL looks like something that has potential...
but I haven't seen any upgrades from John. (I was going to write Mr. Snow,
but that sounds to my ear like Stephen Snow, a reptilian lawyer trying to
save Salve Regina college's ass from a discrimination ruling).

I would still like to see the guy put some more power into this program.
Maybe he should contact one of the more entrenched term-prog makers
(like Applied Engineering or InSync), and see if they would be into putting
their stuff into the Snow template.

Until I see a lot more features in Snowterm, I'm sticking with ReadyLink.
I really hope I see more from the guy, he looks like the only current hope
for a GS/OS terminal program besides AWGS - and AWGS Communication leaves
a lot to be desired, particularly on transfers; I haven't been able to get
a reliable batch Ymodem download out of AWGS yet.
