Red Ryder is so much better than Macterminal is not even funny, I have
heard some good things about Verssaterm, but it still not as powerful as
RR. The Documentation has been upgraded with every upgrade to RR since 8.0
with additional documentation. Scott will release a totally new document
when he has one ready. last I heard he was coding on RR Host the BBS system
he released, and may be difficult to reach. though I KNOW OF 2 PEOPLE THAT
spoke to him recently. As for disks thru the mail, its entirely possible 
that it was damaged in the mail, you can't blame Freesoft for that as
it could have happen to anyone......Norm Goodger @Bridge Comm...
