	BUG infested? I think it's just you (as you suggested!)

	ProTERM 2.2 has never crashed on me, and 2.1 only crashed very
very rarely... I knew about the few bugs that made it hang or crash (like
changing disks before sending or receiving a file), and just simply 
avoided them..

	I've never seen any program that comes anywhere near ProTERM...
The closest is Ascii Express... And that's way behind ProTERM (even though in
a few places Ascii Express is more powerful than AE)...
	
	I would just like to know what you don't like about it..
