I just got the latest( ? ) version of WinQVT (ver 4.5 I think) and
am happy with the progress over the older versions. It supports xmodem,
zmodem, kermit, ymodem and compuserve b. I am having a little trouble 
with it though. I can't get it to auto-redial and I can't get the kermit
protocal to work with cms kermit.

I normally use Telix, and find shareware windows communications 
packages lacking. Little features like auto-redial, ansi color, batch
zmodem and others are still missing from the packages I have found. 

Telix runs fine under a window, but takes lots of memory and you can't run
anything significant concurrently with Telix. If I could find a shareware
program that fulfills my needs for logging onto bbs' and mainframes I 
would gladly pay and register.

I would like a little discussion on this subject. What are some solutions 
that other people have used?
