I'm writing this using WinComm 1.5, a $149 commercial package (although
I think it's $99 educational).  VT102 emulation works great, downloading
is well done (CIS-B, Kermit, X/Y/Z-modem), the user interface is well done
and it includes a very competent Windows-oriented scripting language.  I'm
quite satisfied with WinComm; if anyone else is interested, I'd be happy to
give more details and/or a phone number to anyone who is interested.
