for people running {Unix} who have

{Internet} access via a {dial-up} connection, and who don't

have access to {SLIP}, or {PPP}, or simply prefer a more

lightweight {protocol}. TERM does end-to-end

error-correction, {compression} and {mulplexing} across serial

{client}s on the other side of your {modem} link, all without

needing {SLIP} or {PPP}.
