Mr. Bumpy:

An extensive list of software packages, both commercial and
otherwise, which perform terminal emulation (and/or screen
scraping) for numerous platforms is available behind the
"PC terminal emulation" link on the following web site:

Not to mention [url]http://www.macorchard.com/[/url] which is an excellent
resource for anything 'net related on the Mac, current or classic.

For your purposes, I would recommend either the original NCSA Telnet
final release or BetterTelnet [url]http://www.cstone.net/~rbraun/[/url] (which
is better in several senses of the word!)

I've run both on a MacII / OS 7.1 / 5 MB ram without any difficulty.
In fact, I still do!! For FTP, I'd recommend Fetch. If you use this
on OS < 7, make sure you go into the preferences and turn off Open
Transport calls, though, or you will crash your Mac.
