In no way do I officially represent White River Software, but:
MB> 1.  I can't send characters with a mouse click which is by far and
MB> away the most unique and important aspect that separates Telemate
Winfred has mentioned this; I believe he is working on it.
MB> 2.  I can't get the full 25 line terminal screen no matter how many
MB> lines I specify in setup, so the screen shrinks and truncates
MB> everything just like ProComm Plus for Windows and the like.
The Terminal window is supposed to resize upon connect to the number of 
rows and columns specified under "Tools|Options|Terminal", using the 
font you have chosen, so that there are no scroll bars if possible.
What font, font size and screen resolution are you using? If you want 
the terminal text itself to fill the screen in a maximized Terminal 
window, try a larger font size and/or look for a file named MSIFONT.ZIP 
which contains 3 excellent full screen terminal fonts (for 640x480, 
800x600 and 1024x768). It's freeware and can be found on ftp.mustang.com
If the Terminal window is shrinking too much and truncating things, 
maybe your row/column settings for TMWin don't match what you have set 
up at the BBS? Even in 640x480, you should be able to get everything 
onscreen using 10pt terminal font. If not, under "Window" turning off 
the Macro Bar, Tool Bar and Status Line should definitely allow you to 
see 25 rows.
MB> 3.  It is unbearable annoying to have to expand the terminal window
MB> and close the backscroll window (which I only rarely use) each time
MB> I start up. I would need a way to set the windows so that the
MB> program started up with the terminal window fully expanded and a
MB> pre-set sized dialer window on top just like my beloved Telemate
Arrange all of the windows how you would like them, then go to "Window" 
and click on "Save Layout". The next time you start TMWin, it should 
remember your window arrangement, including the minimized backscroll 
window. Also under "Tools | Options | Start up" you can specify which 
window will appear on top when TMWin opens.
Hope this helps!
