- I sure hope VersaTerm still continues to offer non-CTB terminal
- emulation. Apple's VT102 terminal tool does not offer more than a
- 24-line screen and does not support cursor keys on a PowerBook -- two
- incredible deficiencies, I think.
-
- I'm using VersaTerm Pro 3.5.2 (and have ordered the upgrade)
- specifically because its internal terminal emulation does support
- these things.
-
- Could someone who has the latest version of VersaTerm please
- clarily this point?
