Perhaps you mean UW/WIN? This is a commprogram I wrote that uses the UW
protocol that originally was designed for the MAC. It allows multiple
login shells to a BSD based UNIX system over a single modem. It is uwwin103.zip
in the util directory, and the UNIX server source code is uwserver.zip.

I am working on version 1.04 which fixes bugs, has more emulations, and does
X/Y/Zmodem file transfers.
