For the Better or Worse Category:

I use Netcruiser, which is proprietary software developed for Netcom, 
that is a nice GUI interface, but which has some limitations.  I may be 
running into one with regard to GUI interfaces for use on the ICS 
network.  I'd like to be able to use one, as I am a little intimidated
with using the 'bare bones' display that TeleNet provides.  Especially 
with regard to blitz games, where time is so important a factor.

The few programs I have looked at call into Telenet thru a SLIP or PPP 
account.  I can not find an obvious way to utilize these nice programs 
with Netcruiser.

Does anyone know if there is a way to have these programs work with 
Netcruiser, or if there is a specific chess program which is designed to 
work with Netcruiser.

Thanks for any replies.  Post answers here or send e-mail.
