Re: Zmodem Terminal program for IIgs

Hi,
What made Agate a pain to use?  Also, I have Kermit-65, but as far as I know
it only supports Kermit and Xmodem.  In my experiences, neither one is as
fast as Zmodem, although I must admit to having never used Zmodem on an
Apple.
I have a program called ProTerm, not to be confused with the popular ProTerm
package, yep they had the same name although the one I've got might just be
Proterm.  My program was written by Microtalk, a company which used to write
software specificly for blind people.  This program supports Ascii and
Xmodem transfers, but for some reason sometimes when sending a file, the
file received at the other end is 128 bytes longer than it should be.
Where do you get Agate or Talk is Cheap?
Jayson.
