There is a ProComm look-like for UNIX, called pcomm. I believe it
is in the comp.sources.unix archives somewhere; you might want to
look at it. I've not tried it for years, but some people I know
liked it quite a bit back then.
WARNING! BLATANTLY COMMERCIAL MESSAGE FOLLOWS!
Since I just happen to work for a purveyor of comm software for
UNIX, might I ask if there is any interest in a commercial
communications package for {Free,Net}BSD? Several of our staff
members are already running NetBSD 1.0, FreeBSD 2.0, and FreeBSD
1.1 (soon to be upgraded). We've thougt about porting TERM for
our own use; I wonder if others in the community would be interested,
especially if we could put it out for a reasonably small cost
support-less. RSVP to wesp@censoft.com if you have any interest
in this.
END OF COMMERCIAL MESSAGE!
Direct all flames to wes@indirect.com, Century didn't ask me to do
this! ;^)
