 RW> 
I know most, if not all, other packages have that built into the package. 
Most of these packages are free, and even under development as well.  I just
paid a few hundred dollars to get the latest version, up to speed on the
AUP... whatever...
I am a hobbiest.  I really don't care about all the extended features some
people may want to use.... I have always leaned towards the terminal side.  I
may just keep WINServer as a game server, I have a load of wcx games
registered.... Not sure exactly what do do... we'll see ... Mystic has
everything I want, and more, but I talked myself out of that and paid money
Santronics...

fTelnet kicking my ass like it's 2020 for the rest of my life... learning some
Linux along the way... installed apache web server on my pi to see if I'd get
the same error with a different web server.... and YES I did... piss me off.

More to come....:)
