Of course, Uniterm has that...

I haven't noticed this problem with newer Uniterms, though it was common
with old ones.  Still, I like the graphics myself.

Well, another matter of taste.  The Atari is just one of the things I
use as a terminal, and I'd guess that about 90% of the time that I use
it to log in with, it's to shuffle files around.  I *like* having
kermit right at hand...

(On the other hand, I *could* live without (X Y)modem, because I've never
found it available on any of the mainframes I talk to...)
