Well, not exactly.

This is rather odd: the pr# does not work, nor does Kermit.  Z-link works
just fine, as does ProTERM.  Talk is Cheap doesn't seem to work either, nor
do the CDA Term programs.

Here's the question (listening, whitney?)  What does Z-Link do that these
other programs don't?

I'm using an Apple //gs, with a Prometheus 2400G connected to the serial port.
It is fully Hayes compatible (I use the Hayes 2400 setup from ProTERM).

Note that the previously mentioned programs ALL work once a connection has
been established, so that isn't a problem.
