Red Ryder works well as a VT100 with our Unix machines. Make sure
you set Relative Origin Mode to "on" in the VT100 modes... box of the
Special menu.

I too am looking for a better terminal program. I've heard many good
things about the latest versions of VersaTerm (3.0, 3.1-due soon) but
would like to get Red Ryder to download files to the Mac, using Kermit,
that have the cariage returns where they are supposed to.  Something that
uses the MacTerminal file transfer (macget and macput from Unix) and 
Kermit would be a major breakthrough.

Chalk me up as being on the prowl for a terminal program.
