Nah, can't use 1.2 MB disks on an Apple.  Tried unsuccessfully on a
IIgs. :(

I think Dave Dunfield's comm programs are nice, on the PC side, if you
want me to send them to you, they're freeware and have a lot of
features for being dinky little DOS apps.  End of line delay, IIRC, is
one of those options you can set. Not sure if both laptalk and mterm
have that one. :\ anyway, I'm still trying to get my //e and my 486SX
to talk to each other...man, I'd kill for more/better software on my
//e, what with that 35MB or so of .dsk files I have lying around.
