I have a very small terminal program (it doesn't even have any terminal
emulation, you have to rely on ansi.sys), if you want I could put it in
my home page along with the OmniGo commander.

I run tcp/ip on my onmigo under dos. Now I'm trying to port the software
under geos. I'm quite sure it can be done. My first project is a pop
client (mail reader)...
