Crosstalk is VERY similar to a public domain program written by
Larry hughes; and indeed Microstuf was distributor for Hughes
until they ceased to pay him royalties claiming they had
rewritten his program and thus no longer needed to.
	Hughes has written MITE which I am using now; this is
marketed by MYCROFT Labs of Talahassee Fla. and is very easy to
use.  It uses mostly any protocols you like, has a lot of
terminal types in the init, and transfers binary files even
though the other end doesn't have the same link program that you
have.

If you are contemplating buying crosstalk, I urge you look at
MITE first.
