ProTerm
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
ProTerm is a classic telecommunication program for the Apple II and Macintosh line of personal computers. Published by Intrec Software and most popular in the late 1980s and 90s, it was most commonly used for calling Bulletin Board Systems (BBSes) via a computer's modem.
ProTerm was rich in features such as an extensive "scrollback" buffer limited only by the computer's memory, optional mouse based interface (for the Apple II, it was standard on the Mac), easy to use and very powerful text editor, autolearning macros, and a variety of terminal emulators such as VT-100 and the powerful but proprietary ProTerm Special Emulation (also: PSE or PTSE) which used Apple's semigraphical MouseText character set. File transfer protocols which were supported ranged from Kermit and Xmodem to Ymodem (4K and G) as well as Zmodem.
The latest published versions of ProTerm were v3.1 for the Apple II and v1.5 for the Macintosh.
