I don't remember any Save Configuration.. item in any MacTerminal I've ever
used!  However, I, too, like to have my settings in MacTerm and not in
some document.  You can do it like so:

	- Run MacTerminal
	- Set it up like you want it
	- Save the document somewhere
	- Quit, run ResEdit
	- Copy CNFG 0 from the document to MacTerm.

Under MacTerminal 1.1, saving any document after you do this actually
modifies the CNFG 0 in the Application (a minor drawback, unless you like
to save MacTerm settings in documents).  I think it doesn't do this in
MacTerm 2.2; it does what you'd expect (modifies the document's CNFG 0).

Hope this helps.
