I am testing a few terminal emulators right now.  The list
includes ZSTEM240 from Kea, and Smarterm 340 from persoft.  I have
tried both with WIN TCP and Pathway Access (the upgrade from
WIN TCP).  I couldn't get ZSTEM240 to work with WIN TCP in
Windows 3.0 enhanced mode.  It might be an old version of 
ZSTEM240 that I was given.  Smarterm 340 worked ok, but I didn't
try it using WIN ROUTE.  Smarterm 340 includes a multiprotocol
kit which means you don't need WIN TCP.  It comes with its own
telnet and ftp.  No ping, rcp, or other utilities though.  The
multiprotocol kit only has ethernet packet drivers so it may
not be of much help to you.
  
I have used Procomm a few times and I do remember it supporting
INT 14.
  
I don't have any other comments since I haven't received any of
the other requested terminal emulators yet.  For now, Smarterm
340 leads the way in meeting our requirements.
