In response to Jeff Traigle's ProTERM 2.2 bugs:

1) they switched the functions of ^X and ^Z in the editor.  ^Z is now Find 
Again, ^X is now delete line.  You can change them back to the old way 
with the keyfix program, I think.

2) The problem with the copy buffer not turning off may be the same one 
that is in older versions.  I've found that it really does turn off (ie, 
you don't see the number of bytes going down) but the status line still 
says it's on.  (Haven't tried this on PT 2.2 though.)

3) NFI on the Kermit problems.  Of course, PT's Ymodem and Zmodem are also 
supposedly "fixed" but I have it on good authority that its Zmodem is 
still pathetic.  (Not only from a standpoint of performance -- I've never 
been able to get it to work -- but from a technical standpoint of doing 
what Zmodem is supposed to do.)
