So far with my copy of Red Ryder (6.2) I have made the following decisions:

	1.  Don't use the vt100 emulation.  Use vt52 instead.  The vt100
		emulation loops forever when you send it a Delete Line.
	
	2.  Tabs are incorrectly implemented in all emulations.  Use
		stty -tabs and everything should work.

	3.  It is disappointing that it doesn't talk to mac{put,get}.
		I do, however, have a public domain implementation of
		xmodem that kind of works.  (Anybody out there have
		a version that really works with Red Ryder, or source
		for Kermit for a 4.2 BSD system?)

Regardless of these draw backs I find it an extremely well done package
for the price and would highly recommend it to anyone who needs a terminal
emulation package for the mac.  Especially, if they don't have one of the
copies of MacTerminal that are floating around.
