CRT 2.0a (AXP) -- July 10, 1997
-------------------------------
  CRT is a 32-bit terminal emulator designed for Internet and intranet
  use with support for both the telnet and rlogin protocols. CRT
  includes a 30 day try before you buy fully functional evaluation
  license. CRT is extremely customizable and easy to use. Remote
  sites can be easily accessed by just entering a hostname.

  CRT is ideal for connecting to remote systems running UNIX and
  VMS as well as the many BBS's and databases that are now
  available via the Internet. 

  CRT delivers quality VT100, VT102, VT220 and ANSI terminal
  emulations. All of CRT's emulations support ANSI color.

  CRT is packed with features. Some of the more popular features
  include named sessions, auto login, printing, zmodem file transfer,
  emacs mode, and SOCKS firewall support.
