I am trying to find a terminal emulator/file transfer package that will
satisfy all my needs.  A small request, don't you think?

The two key issues are: a solid terminal emulator (that's almost every
one out there); the ability to do background file transfers.

The second question is the tough one.  All of the terminal emulators out
there (I've looked at Procomm, Qmoded, ZCOMM, Term, and  Reflection) are
good and reliable.  What I really want is to be able to initiate a file
transfer and then, using a hot key, have it continue in the background while
I do something else in the foreground.

Please mail me information about your favorite package.  If I get sufficient
answers, I'll post.

Thanks for your help.
