Re: Packet Radio Terminal Software?

 

I'm looking for an app that's similar WinPack under Windows. I've tried
Xarpm, but that looks a mess, and you have to reload it just to make a
reconnection to the BBS.
I'll keep looking, but it doesn't look like I'm going to find anything
in the calibre of WinPack, and it's a pitty it doesn't run under WINE.
