i've tested 3 programs at 19.2 and only zlink can handle it.  TIC and 
Proterm both choke on ttransfers to and from a mac with a direct serial
connection at 19.2   ...   it probably has something to do with the wa
interrupts are handled...  do the authors wish to elaborate on the interrupt
handling routines?  are they the standard Prodos interrupt i/o handlers?
