        Ok here is how I did it with the Pro.  I set up an external
protocol for the term that I need to use and I set up a bat file for it.
Here is the one that I have for the PIT.
@echo off
cd \pit
ansipit %2 %3
cd \qm
        It works fine if you need to pass the comport and the speed to
the term itself.  If it is set like it is in Tradewars helper then you
can assign a Fkey to it and make sure you have the shell command before
the command for the term.
        That is the two ways I have made it work and I hope it will help
you out.
