TelePro is a terminal emulation program with a powerful command script language specifically designed for use with the Meditech system.  The script language allows programmers to easily write batch programs that interact with a host system entirely without
operator intervention.

The batch command language provides the following features and abilities:

*  TelePro has the ability to send complex sequences of keystrokes.
*  The speed with which keystrokes are transmitted to the host is adjustable.
*  Error detection with user programmable error handling routines are available.
*  Synchronization between TelePro and host systems is possible.
*  Decision and branching structures are available.
*  Tasks can be scheduled to run only on specified days of the week or month.
*  Execution of certain tasks can be based on host system response.
*  The programmer has the ability to call sub-routines.
*  TelePro can simultaneously maintain ASCII, TEXT, and printer log files.
*  TelePro can SHELL to DOS and perform DOS activities during a batch.
*  Switching between multiple communications ports is supported.
*  A pseudo DO-UNTIL structure is available.
*  A merge file option similar to mail merge lets you automate data entry.
*  Character strings may be read from the screen and stored for later use.
*  The program may be scheduled to begin execution at a certain time.
*  TelePro can perform math and character manipulation on stored data fields.

The terminal emulator provides the following features:

*  Rough emulation of Data General 5520 MT, Esprit 105c, and TTY terminals.
*  Ability to toggle both ASCII and TEXT log files on and off during a session.
*  On screen status bar shows log status and communication port settings.
*  Shell to DOS is available to allow DOS commands during a session.
*  A keystroke recorder function allows quick creation of a script batch.
*  A large 16K incoming character buffer is provided.
*  Advanced batch creation tools are available.
*  Mouse support for pull-down menus and batch creation.
