The built-in firmware is really great for turning your coco into a terminal instatnly. I7m using it right now to input this note. Can't you tell by the short lines?!? But it even has "word wrap", which makes your screen look neat but it's harder to remember how many lines of coco screen you've filled since the last. Must try it with Rainbow-Writer sometime. Supports no cursor controls, excpet ctrl-H for backspace. Also, it doesn't correct spelling errors.... Oh well, for $80 bucks, not bad. A friend already wrote an OS-9 driver for the critter, but I haven't cajoled it out of him yet. WOW! evne tabs work ... mike k
