That's it!!!    I've had it!!!!

Yesterday, I tried downloading a 250K+ file from our UNIX machine to my
Mac using Red Ryder at 2400 baud...well, it worked but I can write faster
that it downloaded! :-)/2

So...I would like to have anyone (everyone?) EMAIL to me the name of their
favorite communications program.  My requirements are:  XMODEM, YMODEM,
VT-100 Emulation, and FAST DATA TRANSFERS.  (RR at 2400 baud had an
abysmal throughput of 137 cps.)

Please include any comments about yours that may help with my decision.

Send responses to me at:  {...}!amdahl!cerebus!dalea
                           dalea@cerebus.UUCP

Thanks to all.   I'll summarize the results if appropriate.
