Yeah, it has a few bugs, but it's so feature packed & easy to use that
 I can live with them.
Nope, I'm not happy with the ANSI emulation... it's as shitty as the rest
 of the programs around for the ST except UNITERM (but uniterm doesn't 
have the graphics).
 Good ANSI emulation in my books, includes *FULL* ANSI emulation, 
including windowing support, and your end redrawing the current
 line being edited. It speeds things up a hell of a lot.
(The windowing i'm talking about is the way a bbs can define a scroll
 wondow on your screen instead of redrawing that part of the screen it
 tells your computer to scroll it, then it sends the last line.)

 Craig.
