It's simple, easy to use, and does everything I want it to. I might have switched to BESTERM instead (it does seem to be a nice program), but it has one fatal flaw for my usage -- it uses up too many function keys. I am quite used to using the function keys (plus ins/del chr/line) with my mainframe editor and it would be a giant step backwards (for me) to use a communications program that doesn't allow me to use the function keys remotely.
