Please, PLEASE have the heart to include a well-done zmodem send and
receive module!  I have minimal C hands-on experience, even less if you
consider amiga-specific coding.  In other words, I probably would
not be able to write a module for myself.  From my BBSing experiences, I can
tell you that Zmodem is GOOD STUFF!  Very highly recommended.

Everything else I could think of has departed for the nether regions...
Except for keep up the great work. The VT100 emulator is great.

The only other idea that I have has to do with making a IBM type of
font, which would support IBM Line graphics on the IBM boards.
[Yes, some of us do not have a local AMiga BBS to call :-(]
