Try also:  Chameleon by Antic magazine (publisher/seller).  It has a termcap
in the instructions which works with version 4.2 BSD of "UNIX".  I have been
using this for sometime without any problems.  The 40 character screen width
is handled by horizontal scrolling which is better than nothing but could
be improved upon.  Omniview does not work with Chameleon, as far as I know.  
It will work with any Atari 300 baud modem or any Hayes compatible 300/1200/
2400 baud modem (with 850 interface).
