ZTerm is useful for transferring files between old Macs if the only other means is a floppy disk.
Quickest stable file transfer speeds
If hardware handshaking is not available, enable XON/XOFF. If you are getting errors at or below these speeds, make sure File Sharing is disabled.
| Machine | bps | Can hardware handshake? |
|---|---|---|
| Macintosh Classic | 57600 | No |
| Power Macintosh 5300c | 115200 | Yes |
Notes
- If you run an incomplete System Software installation by copying the System Folder from a Disk Tools diskette to the hard disk, ZTerm will blow up upon launch before the main window appears.
- It loads on Copland, but it can't find any serial ports.
