Now available via standard anonymous FTP from SIMTEL20: pd1:<msdos.modem>KER_SCP3.ARC - Useful Kermit (v2.29 or above) script files Files include: Scripts to log on to a Unix VAX host and two common BBS's (TCOMM, ROS) A typical initialization file (MSKERMIT.INI) to set baud, port, function key macros, command macros, etc. An extract from the Kermit user's manual specifically discussing scripts. A script for redefining the keys for use with EMACS. Other Kermit users are encouraged to contribute scripts that help ease THEIR communications. Keith Petersen <W8SDZ@WSMR-SIMTEL20.ARMY.MIL> will collate and incorporate them in this archive. (So send them to HIM, not to me!) David Kirschbaum Toad Hall kirsch@braggvax.ARPA --- Update: Nov 12, 1988 From: Larry Granroth <GRANROTH@IOWA.PHYSICS.UIOWA.EDU> To: Keith Petersen <W8SDZ@WSMR-SIMTEL20.ARMY.MIL> Re: Kermit keypad setup for VAX/EDT I use the following MSKERMIT key definitions on an XT clone to connect to a VAX. 1) VT102.DOC provides a VAX EDT editor keypad map for my particluar keyboard. 2) MSKERMIT.INI is the initialization file I use. Once in Kermit, the command DO EDT will load the EDT keypad map and the command DO WS will allow me to use most WordStar cursor movement commands (except ^S of course) while in EDT. 3) VT102.KEY contains the EDT-compatible key mapping. Note that the original Kermit local page scrolling can still be used by pressing ALT-CTRL along with PgUp, etc. 4) WS.KEY contains the WordStar cursor movement enhancements for use with EDT. ----- [Thanks, Larry. These files have been added as VAX-EDT.ARC inside the main archive. -- Keith] ----- Note from Keith Petersen: The ARC filename will change in the number field when new files are added.
