It was very buggy and I trashed it. I just got a Jasmine 20 and version 9.4 RR was on it. I looked it over and found that it had greatly improved and has some very nice features. But when I tried out VT100 emulation mode, it was apparent RR9.4 was still buggy. I've heard some talk of a verion 10.3 or so of RR. Is this usuable as a terminal emulator (it has to have good vt100 emulation)? Can it support 9600 baud? My impression is that RR9.4 does not--it seems very slow. Are there new features in this version or is it just debugged more. Does it have what could be considered a user's manual (the garbage he supplies with RR9.4 is attrocious!!!)? Could someone download it to comp.binaries.mac so I could answer these questions myself? If I still deem version 10.3 RR too buggy to use, is there a terminal emulator that has similar procedure/macro capabilities that RR has. Does the latest version of MacTerminal have macros/procedures? Thanx in advance. -- Peter Steele Acadia Univ.
