I have found the terminal emulator written by Jim Holtman and his brother
to be quite good - also its free, and the source comes with it. What more
could a person ask?

It makes the IBM PC emulate either an "HP-like" terminal or an adm3a. It
does require the rs232int part of the IBM Asynchronous Comm Support. Its
written in IBM Pascal (I recompiled the whole thing, and it still worked;
something I can't say for all the software I've tried that on). It starts
up *much* faster than the IBM emulator; the adm3a is a good emulation
(works with vi and some other software that I've tried.  A ventel
autodialing modem is supported.

For file transfer, you can do it the hard way (invoke ed or something, then
dump the IBM file to the line, then finish up), an automatic up/down link
(just for IBM<->UNIX; it does the work), and XMODEM protocols (the UNIX
end source is provided too).

All in all, an excellent working package. Jim's addresses are:

	Jim Holtman                     201/361-3395
	35 Dogwood Trail                harpo!whuxlb!jph
	Randolph, NJ 07869

Thanks, Jim!
