I don't know if any of these programs will work in a Windows environment,
although I tend to doubt it.  However DynaComm (the non-stripped down
program of which Terminal is a stripped-down version!) does have the same
capabilities for remote control.  As a result of a project for a client,
we picked up a copy and I've been playing with it.  For most things, it
works quite well and is quite robust.  I wish it supported the streaming
Ymodem-G protocol, but otherwise I've had no complaints.  The line drawing
graphics even work properly in VT220 mode, unlike WINQVT.
