I think that Termworks and QuicKeys are generally incompatible. When I
was using TW 1.3 and QK 1.1 together, hitting the "Enter" key in response
to a Termworks dialog caused the Mac to lock up instantly. There were
several other problems which showed up during this period... I removed
QuicKeys, and all was well. Now, I've removed Termworks and things are
even better! :-)
I do miss Termworks' feature of displaying the actual transfer rate
during file transfer sessions... no other Mac comm. software I know of
does that. Most simply give you an h/m/s remaining time count, and/or
some sort of horizontal bar as a progress indicator.
