Hey all,
I'm getting fed up with my current Win32 telnet emulator. Having broken my
teeth on Telix and Telemate (DOS dialup term apps), I'm noticing a surprising
lack of features in every telnet emulator I've come across. I am currently
using QVT/Term 4.1.4, which is better than most I've seen, but surely worse
than others.
What I need (*'s indicate where QVT fails):
- fairly cheap, or free, and NO nagware
- uses Winsock and leaves my modem alone
- my choice of arbitrary fixed-width font (*)
- any number of columns wide or rows high (*)
- large-ish scrollback buffer
- arbitrary IP port connection
- VT220, ANSI emulation
- 8-bit transfer
- lets me use the numerica pad like a numeric pad and the cursor pad like a
cursor pad
- ZModem, kermit, etc. up/download (*)
- no gimmicky stuff like POP-mail clients, VRML viewers, etc. >:-P
- other stuff as I think of them :-,
Does anyone have any suggestions?
Cheers,
- jsproat
