I realize that. There is a problem however:  emulation never switches
back to a regular (high) intensity. Most probably this is what
happens:
I am running high intensity as my regular
Host says: low intensity
Telemate switches to low (normal) intensity
Host says: back to regular
Now here TM does not return to regular (high), it returns to 
a 'normal' intensity, the same as 'low' and I never get my colors
back. The bug looks to be  the piece of code which does the 
"switching back" part, and which assumes "the back" to be the
normal intensity, instead of what was stored in TM.CFG

Another bug (or feature) is that TM never deletes virtual memory
files, so I have to clean them up manually, this is present in both
v3.10 and v4.00
