Wow! Talk about response..... I'm overwhelmed!
Original question:
Does anyone know about any comm.-package for Sun like Telix, Procomm etc. for
the PC-world?
Reply:
Yes, there are a few.
Most people seemed to recommend 'pcomm', which is a PD-clone of ProComm. The most
current release seems to be 2.0.2
In second place: xc-4.1 (No, it's not an X-windows program...) I've picked it up,
but have not looked at yet. (It was posted to comp.sources.unix quite recently, and
it's archived in volume 26)
A few voted for 'seyon' which seems to be a member of the Linux-family, at least
from what a breif search with archie revealed.
There're also som commercial alternatives, MLINK from Corporate Microsystems in/near Boston, MA. SoftComm 1.12/2.0, available from MicroLink Technologies Inc.
1260 Lake Blvd., #280 Davis, CA 95616.
I also got some suggestions to use 'tip','cu' or 'kermit', but that was not exactly
what I was looking for.
Thanks for all replies, some people where kind enough to send me 'pcomm' both as an
attached tar-file and as several uuencoded mails.
