Wordstar Emulator (Was: RE: [cobalt-users] (no subject))

[Jeff Lasman <jblists@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I've tested it.  In fact today is the last test day I've got <frown>.

It has the same problem on reverse scrolling as does TeraTerm.  Can be 
fixed with ^R, but if I'm going to have to do that, I might as well use 
TeraTerm, which is free.

I imagine there's some kind of esoteric bug in the Joe code, because ALL 
clients I've tried so far have at least some problem.  J-Term (which alas, 
only does telnet) has the least problem; it only needs a ^R after a ^Y line 
delete; it handles scroll-up just fine.  Neither TeraTerm nor SecureCRT 
3.01 handles scroll-up.  Yes, I've tried ALL terminal emulations available 
with the various programs.  For the price (Free) TeraTerm is the better 
deal, since it and SecureCRT have exactly the same problem <frown>.

Anyone know if there's another wordstar emulator out there <wry grin>?
