I agree 100%.  I use it for almost all of my downloads from BBSs
and my machine-to-machine transfers.  I especially like its ease of
use, and that it has Zmodem.  For my Kermit needs, I use Qterm.
Not to forget VT100 and other neat things.

Yeah, I know what you're saying about the interrupt thing.  I tried
to no avail to write an interrupt-driven routine to buffer incoming
text for the Apple ][ Plus running a SoftCard, but no dice.  But
then again, my main reason for BBSing with that machine is getting
files.
