If there's a nice gui app out there, that would be fantastic. GUIness doesn't make a lot of sense in a character mode communication app. You'll probably run it from an xterm window anyway. Try minicom or kermit. Either should do all you need. With kermit you could script the commands and tie it to desktop icon if you'd like to hide it completely from the operator. -- Les Mikesell lesmikesell@xxxxxxxxx
