  Does anyone have any input they can give me on software-driven 80-col.
  telecommunications programs?
    The only ones that I know of are VT100 (or I think it's called
  VT10sqr) which does'nt have file transfer, and Omnicom, which I am
  using now (hopefully I will get the docs soon; it's a great program
  and the text looks great on a color monitor).
    I really like Bobterm, but I haven't fiddled with it since getting
  Omnicom. Very slick thing; I find it to be aesthetically pleasing.
  Has Robert Puff come out with an 80-column module? I have the XEP80
  driver, but I can't afford to get an XEP80 and another monitor.
    Maybe if I get too bored over spring break I'll try to implement
  80 columns on it, but I doubt that I would be that persistent/
  ingenious/bored/clever/patient.

                                               Thanks in advance.
