New Looking for a replacement for Hyperterm...
Recently upgraded our lab PCs to XPee, and along with it came a new version of Hyperterm, which we use to communicate with a monitor app that runs on our embedded systems. This new version of Hyperterm is horked up bigtime -- as soon as a line scrolls off the "screen" into the light gray scroll buffer area, it gets scrambled up with noise from previously scrolled off lines. Aftere a couple of buffers have wrapped around, the stuff that is scrolled off the "screen" is basically unreadable.

Way to go, Micros~1!

So I'm looking for a (preferably free, as in beer) replacement. It has to work in a Windohz environment, but it can run in a DOS window or under Cygwin.

Any ideas or pointers would be greatly appreciated! Thanx.

New If on a tcp connection...
[link|http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/|PuTTY.] (that is "PuTTY PERIOD!")

If on a serial connection:

[link|http://realterm.sourceforge.net/|v2 of RealTERM for Windows] does capturing and so on.

Best of all it exploits ActiveX for cool features. Being 100% scriptable using Windows Scripting and VB friendly.

Hope that helps.

New RealTerm V2?!?
According to the sourceforge page, we're supposed to be able to download V2.0.0.16. Except that when you go to any of the Download links, all you can get is a roughly-3-year-old 1.99.34.

I'll give the old one a try anyway, in the hopes that a linky to the V2 version will somehow become available.

In the meantime, in answer to your question: Yes, it looks like it'll help! Thanx!

But, I coulda sworn there was v2 out. Infact, I'll see if I can find it.
