I would have changed the subject but it appears you cannot on a Followup
message.  Anyway, I got mail from someone explaining I could use the '0' key
as a +12 and it works just fine.  Also, did you know you can hit esc-q and
it drops you into ProDOS BYE (ProSel-16 in my case)?  Kinda cool. For some
reason since I started using this program ProTerm drops chars all the time.
I haven't bothered to figure out if it's 'cuz of modem port settings
(unlikely), or if Kermit inits the modem differently.
