   EV> I tried using Telnet with HyperTerminal PE.   
      
   HyperTerminal is actually one terminal program that I've never tried.   
   Possibly because it's a Windows program and I've never used Windows for   
   any BBS activity.   
      
   Telix can actually be used to connect to Internet addresses too, such   
   as Telnet, even though it is a DOS program.

   EV> I'm lazy, and as of now the .BAT file satisfies me.   
      
   OK, you do it your way, I'll do it my way.   
      
   EV> I think SEMPOINT did that iirc.??   
      
   I have only used one point program and it's FrontDoor APX in my office   
   machine that actually still has Win 3.11 installed but never used now.   
      
   EV> IIRC, I used Telix on my 486 box when I called local BBS's by   
   EV> Dial-Up.   
      
   EV> I will look for the floppy disk set and play with it to see how it   
   EV> does with my using telnet to log on the BBS I use.   
      
   I hope that it's still intact after having been stored so long.
