I am using MS-Kermit to dial in to an IBM 3090 mainframe, through a protocol
converter. Periodically, I will get line noise which causes Kermit to switch
character sets on me. (I can recreate the problem by picking up the phone
and setting it down quickly.) The character set appears to by Cyrillic or
some graphical character set - I'm not sure. I can use Kreset (alt-=) to
restore the character set, but I would like to prevent the switch from
ever happening. Does anyone have any suggestions on how to tell Kermit not to
make this switch? By the way, I am using VT102 emulation in Kermit. I'm
willing to try other emulations if that would help, but VT102 works well with
our protocol converter, in that it provides printer support. Any suggestions
would be greatly appreciated.
