There was a bug in MSK 3.14 beta prior to 12, a side effect of
adding the "whatami" feature. The resulting transmission mode ended
up being text no matter what.
May I suggest to testers that when you do find a bug please
try the current beta to see if it's been fixed.
Items underway for the next beta:
Certain operations with string substitution were confused when
\fname appears and the name isn't one of the \fxxx() functions. Fixed.
Still questions on RTS/CTS, to be investigated this weekend.
Set Parity blah<ESC> shows extra "(8 data bits)" tag. Yes, I
may change that.
