i use ZOC exclusively nowadays. 80x35 too. with a jombo old man
font. sure i test things with SyncTERM, Netrunner, even my
cherished mTelnet, but ZOC just does it best imo.

i do wish pgup/pgdown and a few other keys just worked by
default though. that's pretty standard "bbs" emulation nowadays
for sync/mystic/others. i can stick ZOC in linux mode, but ansis
go screwy, swap for xterm mode but then backspace or the end key
will stop working. (these probably aren't exact but you get the
idea). lots of things will use left/right as alternates for page
up and down, but the habit isn't there to press those. *shrug*
