Subject: Data loss on terminal programs

Thank you for all the help with getting MEX to acknowledge cursor motion.
However, under my Montezuma Micro CP/M, all the terminal programs I have
tried have a high amount of data loss.  I am continually losing bytes and
have trouble with cursor motion programs because they will often just
become so much gobbledeygook(sp?) when it loses the escape or the = or
one of the two following characters for cursor positioning.  Furthermore,
it sometimes crashes so that it will do something involving 7s, 's, and
a much smaller screen under something like vi.  Other times it will completely
forget cursor motion works at all.  However, this happens after I've been
in the terminal program for a while.  Does anyone have any idea how to correct
this?  The CP/M is running on a TRS-80 Model 4P and I go 1200BPS.
