Well, the problem is that ProTerm's vt100 emulation is severely flawed... Personally, I never use it.. The best vt100 on the apple that I have encountered is that on Apple Kermit... The next best is AE:Mousetalk, followed closely by Dave Whitney's Zlink (Great program, just a few bugs in the vt100 need to be fixed)...
