I use pcomm occasionally on my Esix (sysvr3) system.  It's OK, but
not quite like the DOS Procomm it emulates (not nearly as snappy).

I also use it to configure modems...  but it's a paain because it
changes register settings during the init.  I guess I could set up
a modem setting line without anything on it, or maybe an at Z...

What do the rest of you use for easy communications with your modems
for setting registers, etc?
