    Im realizing that Muffinterm isnt exactly doing a good job with uploading files.
    I was doing better using ZOC. I am happy I bought a licence to that program several
    years ago.

    I remember ZOC and Banana Term. I'm still using mTel as it was originally written for OS2 yet is kind of "bullet proof" I know SynchTerm is probably better but I have mTel working on a Win 10 laptop. It's just configuring the text and window size that's somewhat problematic. It does file transfers quite well.

    I actually still have ZOC on one of my VMs, since that was what I used to automatically pull down weather forecast data from the old telnet Weather Underground. It was all using scripts in ZOC.

    Hi, UG.

    Im realizing that Muffinterm isnt exactly doing a good job with
    uploading files.

    Have you tried contacting Molly about it? She is super helpful (as in rolled in a fix for my issue in about a day, and it only affected certain old versions of MacOS).

    I'll see what happened can be repeated.

    I use syncterm on my macbook air M3, I've used it on my last intel mac as well. It seems to work for me so I stick with it.

    The window is resizable so works on laptop screen windowed, full screen, or even on the 30" monitor. It's just huge at that size.
