Wow thanks for all the replies guys.

Art: I WISH i had some rs232 packs. They are getting a little hard to  
find now. Thanks for the terminal names. Im gona try and hunt those  
down. For now im limited to the bitbanger and tape.

SHF: Thanks for that link!

Aaron: Thanks for pointing out that program. I actually have that  
issue in print but the tape has been lost with time. I have Sept84 on  
tape :-/  If it comes down to it i'll have to type it in.

Bill: Mikeyterm's bin is 17K so i don't think its gona work on my  
lowly 16K CB coco2 :( If you happen to come across the older version  
send it my way please.

I did have some success with a few programs on rtsi. I got 2 to load  
on the little coco2..
TAPETERM.BIN loads fine but I can't get it to work all that great at  
300 or 1200. It drops letters or just displays extra garbage. I tryed  
2 different CoCo2s.
TMSTERM.BIN loads and works. BUT it seems you can't change the  
settings from 300 8n1. Also it only displays UPPERCASE (not even  
inverse text) and can only send lower case. I don't mind the 300bps  
all that much but not being able to SEND upper case is kinda an issue.

The hunt continues.
