[net.micro.apple] Softerm2 tabbing problem help?

From:  "Robert P. Cunningham" <cunningh@nosc.ARPA>

I've just acquired Softerm2 (version 1.06, and I'm in the process of
patching up to 1.07) which seems to work fine EXCEPT that ctrl-i tabs
sent from Unix machines are not expanded to tabs on the screen.

The problem seems to persist with whichever terminal emulation I use
(I've tried VT52, VT100 and TVI925), so I suspect it's an artifact of
my configuration or else something I'm doing wrong.  The configuration
I'm having problems with is: Apple II+ with Microsoft 16k card, Wesper
80-column card, and Apple Super Serial Card with Hayes Smartmodem 1200.

I'd appreciate hearing from anyone with an idea of what might be
wrong.

p.s. Softronics Inc. will introduce Softerm2 for the IBM PC in July,
at which time they will switch their online response system to a
regular BBS and the Apple SOFTERM.UPDATE file transfer setup for updates
will no longer work.  See the latest SOFTERM.NEWS at Softronics for
more info.
