The built in BASIC ROM only goes to 19200bps.

The hardware of the M100/T102 is capable of 76800bps.

Note that I've seen some USB serial ports and terminal programs that do not
handle 76800bps.

Which is why the hard-coded value in HTERM is 38400bps instead of 76800. At
some point I'll add some configurability.

Yes I would just use TELCOM unless you have an issue, issue being, lost
data at 9600 with XON/XOFF.

Or if your device does not support software flow control.

Well, that can be tricky. Depends on what you're working with.

REX/TS-DOS and a TPDD-emulator (LaddieAlpha, Mcomm, DLPlus)  is the best
way. But there are other ways like we could make a ASCII BASIC poker, or we
could use TBACK.EXE.

Of course not, that's what we're here for, to help each other out :-)
