I've been using a PD program called PC-VT, ver 8.3. It does a good
job of emulating a DEC vt100. The interface is not as slick as Procomm,
but the terminal emulation works, and it supports XMODEM (which I've
used) and KERMIT (which I have not used).

p.s.: I keep hearing about what a great program Procomm is; I'm glad that
someone else has noticed that NONE of the terminal emulations seem to work....
