OVERVIEW (tiny changes by M.Ramsch)

     This is not a general communications package.  If you need some of the
     features of other general packages such as
          o one zillion emulations
          o one zillion file transfer methods
          o weird character sets (i.e. EBCDIC)
     then this  program is  not for you.  This program is dedicated to those
     of you have already bought an Amiga, a  modem, and  need to communicate
     with some sort of computer that supports the 8 bit ANSI protocol.

     This program offers:
     o VT220 emulation (80 and 132 columns)
          Not a  fake emulation...  This emulation covers everything I could
          find in the VT220 owners manual except the printer stuff.
        + 7 and 8 bit character sets
        + Multinational Character Sets (c0, c1, GL, and GR)
        + Special Graphics set
        + emulates full LK201 keyboard (VT52, VT100, VT220)
        + VT52, VT100, and VT220 compatibility
        + terminal  modes :  (KAM, IRM,  SRM, LNM,  DECCKM, DECANM, DECCOLM,
          DECSCLM, DECSCNM, DECAWM, DECARM)
        + All  character  renditions  :  (off,  bold, underscore, blinking,
          reverse, erasable, not_erasable)
        + All Line Renditions : (normal, double width, double height).
        + ANSI tab stuff.
        + Probably more which I forgot...
     o Multiple sessions with "uw" protocol
          + each session has its own set-up configuration
          + independent menus
          + separate windows each with scroll bars and other gadgetry
     o Transcript buffer
          + 0 to some_big_number lines of output history
     o Works well in workbench environment
          + can start from icon.
          + all errors shown in requesters
     o window iconification to save chip ram
     o easy to use user interface
