I am looking for a new terminal program for my Mac II. Right now I am
using Kermit, but am looking for something better, or something that
I can get C source to so that I can make it do what I want.

I'd like a program that:
	Doesn't cost much (instead of buying something like VersaTerm
		pro, I could just buy a used terminal)
	Emulate a Concept-100 (this isn't too critical, a vt100 would be
		enough)
	Lets me use large characters (12 or 14 points) so 80*25 fills my
		Mac II monitor
	Does XMODEM transfers (preferably 1K blocks or fast-track)

Recently a vt100 emulator was posted on comp.binaries.mac, but it doesn't
seem to run on my machine, I get funny symbols where there should be
letters (any ideas why its font isn't working?)

I'd appreciate any ideas or suggestions or code. (Source code to a sample
terminal program in C would be super).

Thanks,

	Mike Gleicher
