Since you're using PORTAL, you may be "local" to one of my BBS systems
(e.g. BBS-HT, BBS-JC, FAUG-BBS, etc.).

Get HANDSHAKE from one of those BBS systems; we have both version 1.50
and 1.60b available.

Caution using 1.60b though: it is extrememly susceptible to ANY garbage
on the line and is extremely prone to guru or totally hang your Amiga; for
that reason MOST users of Handshake have reverted to version 1.50.

Also, there are several SERIOUS bugs in the VT100 emulation.  I called
Eric Haberfellner once, discussed this with him, offered to fix the bugs,
he said "fine", I sent him a blank disk and a signed non-disclosure
agreement, and he never responded since.  I'm "out" one (expensive) SONY
DS/DD 3.5" disk.  :-(
