Myself, I have no use for a program such as Handshake, and my personal favorite Term programs currently are Ncomm 1.9 and Vlt 5.045. Handshake does have some annoying features/bugs but I just kind of discded it because I ddidn't feel right complaining to the author without having registered it, and I didn't want to register a program that annoyed me. Anyway, vlt and ncomm are very nice for my needs, although it would be REAL neat if one of them could implement a unix-windows type protocol. On a side note: Does anyone know if it's at all possible to emulate X-Windows on an Amiga, I'd be very interested in running X on the machine I'm using through the modem.
