I THINK, but I'm not sure, that Point-to-Point 2.x provides VT52 and
possibly VT100 emulation (I don't use the package myself, but I worked for
Pinpoint Publishing for about a year).  One thing's for sure, don't call
Pinpoint for any kind of technical support as they are no longer supporting
their Apple II line of products.

Note that Beagle Bros. just picked up Point-to-Point.  As I'm sure that Gary
Little is going to be making some changes in it, you might look into an
update if/when one becomes available.

I wonder if Beagle Bros. is going to change the name of P-t-P...as it stands
now it looks like Beagle Bros. will be publishing a program which bears half
of the name of one of its former competitors (e.g. Pinpoint vs. TimeOut).
