This is two-part question.

First, does anyone know if the company that supprted and distributed
ASCII Express is still in business?  I forgot to get the upgrade that
included the GS serial port when it was announced several years ago
since I had pretty much stopped using AE; kermit did what I needed to do
and AE only emulated VT52's.

The reason I ask is that the dial-up/login sequence I now find myself
using has gotten long enough that I want to go back to using some kind
of scripting ability.  Kermit's is too primitive:  it doesn't allow you
to wait for a particular response.  AE's was just fine and once
connected it could automatically invoke kermit.  What other
telecommunications programs are there that can do that?  (free or
shareware best)
