You may see the ever-popular Uniterm mentioned as a possible program.  You 
would not have to sell your color monitor.  Uniterm supports med and hi rez.
It's also very fast, full-featured for main-frame and *nix systems, runs 
external programs (I run XYZ.TTP) with a mouse click for Zmodem), very
powerfull script language and ability to use GDOS fonts.  Full GEM,
and reliable code (not one crash in three years of use).  Lastly, it's
in english, comes with extensive documentation, and is free.  Current
version is 2.0e.  I love to use it with vi (if I have to) where I can click
on the screen and the cursor goes there for editing.
