All the VT100 codes are left in there. If Itay Chamiel ever gets off his rear, his term program Megaterm has a good screen dump feature that doesn't mess things up. He doesn't have a capture buffer mode built in though. I am using it right now, and it's a lot more user friendly than Omnicom, and doesn't tend to drop characters at 2400 baud. Omnicom did this to me every now and then. It has drop down menus for configuration. It can be configured up to 19.6Kbaud, but seriously, I doubt if the 8 bit could keep up. Anybody wish to put it to the test with a v.32bis modem? -- Jeff McWilliams -->student, Electrical Enginnering, Michigan Tech. Univ. cd827@cleveland.freenet.edu OR jjmcwill@mathlab.mtu.edu
