I played with versaterm a few years ago and decided to use Kermit instead
because Kermit would allow me (via CKMKEY) to define my own mapping of the
keyboard.  Since I interact with several mainframes (all of which have a
different idea about what a VT100 really is) the keymapping option allows me
to customize my terminal for each mainframe.

Since people are now talking about how wonderful Versaterm is, I would like
to switch (Kermit does not allow past/cut from the screen yet, which is a
major handicap).  However, I think I would rather not switch if Versatem will
not allow customizing of the keyboard map.  Does anyone know of a program
that allows:

paste/cut to and from screen
up and download in xmodem, kermit, and 'save/send ascii stream'
custom keyboard mapping
VT100 and/or Zenith-19 emulation
autodial and/or mapping of keys to functions/character strings

I would gladly switch to a program that will do all these things.  

Many Thanks,
