After seeing so many of you rave about ZTerm, I decided to give it a try,
having reached the conclusion that both QuickLink II and MacKermit "do not meet
my needs" (read: suck cheese.) I'm very excited about ZTerm and the copy I
ftp'd from sumex looks fine, and yet:

ZTerm does not accept 8-bit characters for me.

The only command I see that has to do with 8-bit characters (and yes, I 
_did_ read the manual) is the option under, I believe, terminal settings where
you can choose NOT to accept "high-bit" characters (I assume this means
8-bit).Therefore I assume accepting 8-bit characters is a default. Therefore I
can't understand why it doesn't do it.(That is one thing MacKermit will do, and
it is vital to me.)

Running 7.0.1 +tuneup, Classic II, Extension Manager, SuperClock,
DiskDoubler,the usual suspects -- nothing exotic. Help?
