This has been a problem for others as well.  In version 9.2 (which I am
working on now) I have added a 7 bit and even/odd parity option.  The reason
the transfers didn't take care of the problem completely is because data sent
by Novaterm is not in the 7 bit and whatever parity form.  Novaterm could 
care less about the word length and parity of received data, so sending data
is what I fixed.
