- I just downloaded term 2.4a, and I'm impressed with some of the fixes
- so far, yes term does continue to get better. However, I would like to point
- out two things:
-
- 1) XPR ZModem still craps out when using serial.device, and putting only a
- minimal amount of strain on the system (hard-drive access.) Sure, using
- baudbandit.device does the trick, but baud bandit doesn't allow sending of
- breaks, which means I'm stuck in one UNIX session! I hope that this can be
- remedied through implementation, rather than it being the serial.device alone.
- (Please, any reponses I HAVE set up HIGH-SPEED MODE, and set term's priorty
- WAY UP, so that is NOT the problem)
-
- 2) It would be nice if one could pick a number from the phone book to dial
- quickly - For instance, a right mouse button click on a entry?
-
- I really like term, but it looks for now like I'm still stuck with
- baud-bandit device. Blech.
-
- Thanks for trying hard so far, Olsen!
- DK.
