I love ProTerm (as will anybody who uses it I think). I use it as a terminal to connect to my Raspberry Pi and it's all good, even at 19200 baud. My one remaining issue is that I have to enter all the connection settings (baud rate, em=VT100, online, etc) each time I connect. Is there a way to make these settings default? I know there is macro facility in ProTerm but I can't see a way to make these connection settings used with a macro.
Thanks.

Paul,
ProTerm's (I'm assuming version 3.1) macro language is a *bit* different
(and I'm a *bit* rusty in its use), but this should do the trick for you.
You'll need to load, edit and re-save your PT.GLOBAL (TXT) file after
changing the following (2) macros:
*
OPTION-u : Modified to be called by Startup Macro @@1
*
@@u
DO "online:parameters","Emulate:<DEC VT-100> Baud Rate:<19200> Line
Status:<Online> []";
EXit
*
Startup Macro
The @@1 macro is automatically executed every time that ProTERM is run.
Modified here to call @@u, which will modify your online parameters
*
@@1
CALL @u;
EXit
After you save the modified file, just quit and re-start ProTERM and you
should have what you want.
Remember, the items between * * are ignored as comments.
Let me know if you have problems, and I'll walk you through them. This
method does work, as I have used it myself in the past.
