Description: Qodem is an open-source re-implementation of the once-popular
Qmodem(tm) shareware communications package. Qodem (pronounced 'kodem',
rhymes with 'modem') is now in beta. Its main features are:

    * Terminal interface: scrollback buffer, capture file, screen dump
    * Convenience: dialing directory, command-line invocation
    * Connection methods: serial, local shell, telnet, ssh, rlogin, rsh
    * Emulations: ANSI (with "ANSI music"), Avatar, VT52, VT100/102, VT220,
      Linux
    * Transfer protocols: X/Y/Zmodem, Kermit
    * Programmability: keyboard macros, full scripting

---------------

I recently discovered this program and have found it to be useful for talking
to some types of communications equipment via the serial port.  Most of the
time I just use 'cu -l /dev/ttyS0', but sometimes I need terminal emulation.  I
find that qodem loads faster than minicom.  It is a small program that was easy
to make into a package, so I decided to see if it would be useful to others.  I
think it would be a small, but very useful contribution to Fedora's package
repository.
