Of course, you could get HyperTerminal Private Edition (FREE) from
www.hilgraeve.com, which is a great telnet program (supports ZModem and
file resuming) and even lets you specify your own telnet terminal
envoronment var (no more 'setenv TERM vt100').
I used to use HTPE 3.0 exclusively, but now I've switched to ssh and like
Cedomir Igaly's SSH client (don't have the URL handy. searching the
-questions or -security archives will give you a bunch of URLs).
