If PTP is even remotely similar to the one I bought back in
God-knows-when (84-86 perhaps?), ProTERM 3.1 is *vastly* superior. The
only competition it has *right*now* is ANSITerm 2.0 (GS-specific) and
Talk-Is-Cheap 4.0, which wins in hyperbole at least. :-)
I believe Spectrum, which is also GS-specific (right?), should be out
soon, and it also is supposed to be rather good. Then there's Telcom II,
whenever Jawaid has the time to do it (never? :-).
