[comp.sys.sgi] VT100 in a MEX screen?

SOFPJF@VM.UOGUELPH.CA (Peter Jaspers-Fayer) (03/06/90)

I was asked to forward this question to the net. Please reply to me (Len
Zaifman) at the address below and I will summarise. This seems to be a problem
on the 3000 series. Kermit(yech) works fine on my 4D.

Please forward this to your IRIS discussion group:

Is there any way to do VT100 emulation in C-Kermit in a MEX
screen?  We would like to see VT100 emulation from an IRIS
which responds to the  UNAME -A  command with the string:

   IRIS IRIS m68020 5.0+5.3+ (GL2-W3.5) GL2 GL2.4 3030

(IS there a command on an old IRIS 3120 that would give a
more meaningful identification string (version uf Unix, &
etc.) than 'uname'?)
