A recent article discussing telecommunications with the ATARI listed 
several terminal emulation programs including "Chameleon 4.0".  I 
have used Chameleon 2.0 for more than a year now and find it the best 
program for talking to Unix.  It was available from APX and included
the executable plus macro source.  Version 2.0 handles 80 columns by
providing horizontal screen scrolling (a mixed blessing) and provides
a reasonable emulation of a DEC VT52 or ADM 3A which makes using vi
easy.  It also provides a simple text-file upload/download capability.
The description of Chameleon 4.0 really caused me to drool--it has all 
the enhancements I've been wanting including XMODEM and KERMIT file 
transfer protocols, disk management functions, and support for 
smart modems.  

My problem is simply that the article gave no clue as to where I
could get Chameleon 4.0.  The article simply stated "[it] is a popular
terminal program in the public domain ..."  If anyone knows where I
can get the program (preferably with the source), I would really
appreciate it if you would send mail letting me know where!!
