I looked at MacTerminal 1.1 in Mini vMac.
It doesn't support Hardware Handshake. Either none or Xon/Xoff which is software handshake. You could probably try that, I'm not exactly sure on how Xon/Xoff works. But HSK requires CTS/RTS lines, it's not supported by the other machine, so...I'd probably have to pick up a DE-9 (it's not DB-9) RS232 tester and see if the CTS/RTS lines blip the LEDs when I use software handshake.
Try software handshake and compare it to none.
I have MacTerminal 2.2 here and it looks exactly the same. However, instead of just offering XModem and Text file transfer (I will investigate the Text anamoly you found and see if it is "fixed" in MacTerminal 2.2 or 2.3.1), it has MacBinary, XModem Text, MacTerminal 1.1, Text and "Straight XModem".
I also have procured MacTerminal 2.3.1, the last version of 2.x, (2.2 is the last to work on a 128K) and it looks identical to 2.2. (All top out at 19200bps.) MacTerminal 3.0 I have yet to play with on a real machine.
I will hopefully have a chance to play with a 512K in the future so I'll look at the wiring and fiddle with the terminal apps. As always, I will take copious notes and put down my findings in the Serial Data Interlinks section of the Guide. I don't have a MacTerminal subsection there but I hope to get that done.
EDIT: BTW what is your xfer speed set to? Hopefully you do have a more capable terminal on the other end that can show errors/missed data packets/etc like ZTerm can. If you have it set to 19200bps and it works A+ then I guess that's going to be the most you're going to get out of it. (I used 38400bps on the LCII test box because 57600 wasn't so hot.)
