Zterm uses a special resource called a kCHR resource.  It's in the Zterm
application.  For system 7, You've got to use resedit, copy that resource from
Zterm, and paste it into the system.  Then, choose the zCHR name in the
keyboard control panel device, and boom! Zterm runs just like it always did
before.
