[net.micro.pc] KERMIT With TAC

Has anyone tried to use Kermit through a TAC?  Or is anyone interested
in using Kermit through a TAC?

I failed miserably in my attempts to customize Kermit for use through
a TAC. I added XON/XOFF flow control to Kermit, sent the appropriate
commands to the TAC to turn on flow control, and changed the escape
character to ^Y.

It didn't work. This sort of thing needs to be debugged from both the
TOPS-20 side and the PC side, but I am not long on Tops-20 coding.  I
believe the right approach is to carefully control the TAC settings
from the Tops-20 side, but don't know how to go about this.
