Mark;

  I may have found an 'anomaly' in STERM.  I was downloading some files this
morning, and after the 2nd one, I checked the transfer rate (ctrl Z).  I don't
believe that it was only 34%, but that's what it told me.

  Anyway, on the third file, after entering the name of the file for my
computer, instead of creating the 'download box', I got a line at the bottom of
the screen in reverse video of "*--------------------*" and another line at the
top of the screen, also in reverse video, of garbage chars.  As the download
progressed, the byte counter incremented properly (and was readable), and after
completion (yes, it was successful), everything returned to normal. Upon
checking the xfer efficiency again, it was a phenomintl 327.6% !!!

Specifics: CoCo3, STERM v.1.3, invocation "sterm13", baud=2400, 38ms HD w/
           B&B interface.

  Next time I dl something, I'll see if I can duplicate the problem.

..Jim
