[net.micro.pc] Using Kermit as a Unix Terminal

HFISCHER%USC-ECLB@sri-unix.UUCP (01/16/84)

Bob,

The new test version of Kermit which I am temporarily distributing
directly supports defining function and cursor control keys for your
particular Unix editor.  Kermit itself expects VT52 cursor controls
(actually Heath-19, because insert/delete line are supported).  As far
as what the function and ctrl, alt, and arrow keys generate, this
version of kermit takes a setup file which specifies the codes to be
generated.  For example, I distribute setup files for the Interactive
Systems Unix INed and EMACS.  You can also add your favorite modem
dialing sequences, etc.

I have been looking for a kermit modified to permit use of cursor keys with
emacs.  Can the modifications needed be mailed, posted or can I send you a
diskette?  This is exactly what I need! Thanks.
