    PANTHER (formerly released as COSWORTH) is a *FREEWARE* (yes, that
    means it's free!) DOS communications software application which has
    all the features that the other 'big players' have, plus a few more!
    It's a snap to set up through a simple installation program and
    features...

    - PANTHER is issued as FREEWARE. No payment is expected to be made by
      anyone using the software.
    - It directly supports connections through Mercury Communications.
    - Has a full featured BASIC-like script language which is read from
      standard ASCII text files created on just about any text editor.
      Scripts can also be 'learned' by PANTHER itself. Even if your script
      file 'goes wrong', a 'smart script' feature will automatically
      attempt to correct the situation!
    - Internal protocols; Xmodem/XmodemCRC, Xmodem1K, Xmodem1KG, Ymodem,
      YmodemG and Zmodem. (including automatic downloads) Internal
      protocols automatically rename incoming files where appropriate in
      order to avoid overwriting existing files.
    - Has an 'Auto Dialler' facility which allows unattended dialling
      using a built-in timer.
    - Up to twenty user-defined keystroke macros.
    - Machine independent timing.
    - Scroll back buffer which automatically adjusts to the amount of
      memory available.
    - Internal file lists for automatic transmission
    - Complete IEMSI support including an internal IEMSI packet editor.
    - Configurable serial ports with the ability to modify the address,
      IRQ line and interrupt number.
    - Colour screen snapshots and an internal snapshot viewer.
    - Intelligent timeslicing for running under any of Windows 3.x,
      DESQview 2.xx, DoubleDOS, VMiX 2.xx, MultiDos Plus 4.xx, DOS 5.0
      Task Switcher, TaskView, TopView, OmniView, Windows NT, and OS/2
      2.x.
    - Support for the FIFO 16550A UART chip.
    - When executing an external program PANTHER will swap its code out to
      Expanded Memory, Extended Memory or Disk, typically, leaving less
      that 5K of PANTHER in conventional memory.
    - Up to nine external file transfer protocols, five dialling prefixes
      and up to one hundred entries in each dialling directory.
    - Full internal ANSI, Avatar and VT52 emulations.
    - A 'Raw logging' capture system which catches all characters
      received.
    - An easy to use installation program which creates all the necessary
      support files as well as specific Microsoft Windows 3 PIF files and
      icons.
    - Context-sensitive help.
