Procomm Plus is a terminal emulator, offering support for three dozen terminals. It also features a fax applet, FTP ability, an e-mail program, and even a Usenet news reader. Even for all its functionality, Procomm Plus isn't for the faint of heart. Its interface, consisting of pull-down menus and unlabeled icons with commands that are identified only by mouse-over tips, is a throwback to the days when user-friendliness was a rarity. Its terminal emulation, mail, FTP, Usenet, and other functions reside in different executables, yet you can make system-wide setup changes from most of them.

its display when Ctrl-] is pressed.
After applying the patch, the Status Line can be toggled by entering
PCSETUP (Alt-S), selecting Display/Sound Options, and choosing
item F. The Status Line may also be toggled from the menu line.
# LOG_EOF.DTP - for use with DT_PATCH.EXE

marker before appending to an existing file.
# CLIPKEY.DTP - for use with DT_PATCH.EXE

This patch changes the key sequence that activates the
FILENAME CLIPBOARD from ALT-= to ALT-- ( ALT key plus dash ).
# FILELIST.DTP - for use with DT_PATCH.EXE
Target Program: PROCOMM PLUS version 2.01
File sizes of 1 megabyte or greater cause formatting problems
in Alt-F file listings and ASPECT scripts using $FDATE. This patch
corrects this condition for file sizes less than 100 megabytes.
# NO_CTRLZ.DTP - for use with DT_PATCH.EXE
Target File: PCPLUS.EXE version 2.01
Some text editors place a Ctrl-Z (Ascii 26) at the end of an edited
file. When PROCOMM PLUS opens a text file to append data, the Ctrl-Z
must be removed. If the file doesn't exist, a condition can occur that
in known to cause an Error 107 in Aspect scripts.
This script has no side effects and should be run by anyone running
script files.
# VTKEYMAP.DTP - for use with DT_PATCH.EXE
Target File: PCPLUS.EXE version 2.01
When PROCOMM PLUS starts, it loads the .KBD file and then replaces
all ^[O sequences to ^[[ for VT/ANSI emulations, which is the way
the actual terminals power-up.
This patch prevents PROCOMM PLUS from changing occurrences of ^[O
in the VT/ANSI family of terminals.
