Woan) Organization: University of California, Berkeley Lines: 17 I am interested in compiling a listing of reasons to use the various communication programs out there. Currently, I am using PROCOMM PLUS and PIBTERM, but I have just downloaded TELIX and started to look at it. What strikes me immediately is that there are no apparent host modes and a script learn mode. A good point is that it takes less memory than the two programs that I use currently. Since built-in zmodem is not a real concern of mine, is there any reason to switch? Also, I would like opinions about the popular commercial programs as well (Mirror, Crosstalk, etc..).
