- The authors of TERM for AmigaDOS 2.04 managed to get Blinking text in as
- part of the terminal program with no problems. They also pulled off another
- feat JR-Comm has yet to duplicate. TERM can handle 16 Color ANSI at 19.2
- with no data loss. These are only two reasons I switched from JRComm to
- TERM.
