Hyperterm just plain sucks at just about anything.  I hate it.  Have made
the mistake of pasting an entire Cisco router configuration into the
window...  couple of hundred lines of text, the SOB took about an hour to
send it.  Disgusting.  Unfortunately most of the *good* serial comms
programs for Windows machines seem to have died off...  I especially liked
Telix and QMODEM.  Best one I have found recently is one that CCS sends
with their C compiler called SIOW.  Very bare-bones, but just the thing
for takling to PICs - except for bootloaders, it doesn't do file
transfers.  Other than that, Minicom for UNIX/Linux does a great job.
