Yes, I have praised MacTerminal.  I've been using it as my primary
terminal program since last November. I dimly remember having some of
those type of problems back when I was running a single drive with nearly
no extra space on the disk.  The problems went away when I removed all
fonts except the required system fonts.

By the way, WHAT are all these people using macput and xbin with, if not
MacTerminal?
