The vt100 emulation isn't *that* bad. At least the auto line-feed can be
disabled now.

A really annoying feature has surfaced in 0.75. I'm currently using
MultiFinder 6.1a2. If I wish to auto-redial in the background and I have
ZTerm set aside, the windows would appear (although not quite; just their
boarders) on the desktop. Clicking inside those outlined windows will bring
ZTerm in the foreground, but their contents are not updated! In other
words, those windows are still in "see-through" mode. It appears that each
time the redial statistics are updated, the windows are redrawn,
interferring with MultiFinder's set-aside function.
