HyperTerminal is well-known to be unreliable, unstable and inconsistent, as well as very inconvenient for this sort of use. For the mspgcc windows package, could I suggest Tera Term Pro instead? It's small, open source, does everything you normally need in a simple terminal program, and has some extra functionality (such as a scripting language) without cluttering the interface? http://hp.vector.co.jp/authors/VA002416/teraterm.html For those looking for more functionality (at the cost of more complexity), there is also RealTerm (also open source): http://realterm.sourceforge.net/ mvh., David
