It is part of a compressed set of files for an install. Run the install for whatever you are looking for. If this comes standard with windows go to control panel, add remove programs, windows setup and click on communication, select details and select hyper terminal or the dialer or all the above and get the whole windows communication setup.
Hope this helps

Terminal.ex_ is part of Windows 3.11. You will also need the terminal.hl_ file.

You will need to do the following at a dos prompt (assuming that you have terminal.ex_ on a floppy disk and want to extract it to c:\windows)...

expand a:\terminal.ex_ c:\windows\system\terminal.exe

expand c:\terminal.hl_ c:\windows\system\terminal.hlp

That second was supposed to be "expand a:\terminal.hl_ c:\windows\system\terminal.hlp"
