    Eclipse is a piece of sh*t!!! many of its functions are disabled, but
there is nothing in the package that documents what is and what works..
Also, it is a memory hog! the only vertue is good VT100 emulation... Not
good enough.

Subject: Communications software

        Has anyone used the comm software that comes bundled
with Megahertz PCMCIA modems called Eclipse Data SE (by
Phoenix Technologies)? If so, is it OK as compared to one
of the more well known packages, like Crosstalk or Wincom?
        I've got Crosstalk 2.0.0, which is a somewhat out-
of-date version, and it doesn't list any Megahertz modems
at all during setup/installation. As a result, I can't
seem to get it configured in a way that makes the modem
happy. I know the bundled software supports the X-jack
explicitly, and I'm therefore considering just switching
Eclipse for Crosstalk. Before I do, however, I'd like to
hear any comments regarding Eclipse Data, good or bad.
Anyone??

        Thanks,
