[comp.sys.ibm.pc] Telemate and MSKermit

I have been trying out a new comm package called Telemate but I have
been having some troubles with downloading using MSKermit V 2.31.  
Kermit is not built into Telemate but must be called as an external
program.  My problem is that if I abort a file during a download
the Telemate terminal freezes once MSKermit finishes and I reenter
Telemate.  I would like to send a ctrl-c to the mainframe from which
I am downloading but I can't seem to send anything.  It won't hang
up using alt-h, I can't send local commands to the modem, etc.  
It is only the terminal window itself that has this problem.  I can
still shell out, exit, use other telemate windows, etc. but I can't
send any signals out in the terminal window.  Anyone else have
this problem?

Thanks.

    I've been having the same troubles with Telemate. I can't send any
commands to the modem by typing them in the terminal window. But it sounds
like you were luckier in getting it to dial out. I can't even get it to do
that. Maybe someone out there can tell us why Telemate isn't working for some
of us? I can't use the program the way it is, and I'd like to because it has a
lot of nice features.
