I'm using MS-Kermit 3.14 Beta-14. My UNIX-hosts do not know what to do
with "vt320", and when trying to adjust my mscustom.ini definitions I
noted an inconsistency (or bug?).
The telnet macro in mskermit.ini:
define TELNET -
set flow none,-
set port tcp \%1 \%2,-
pause 0, if fail end 1,-
if def \%3 set term type \%3,-
if succ c
and accordingly the myhost define in mscustom.ini:
define myhost -
telnet myhost 23 vt320,-
if success assign myhost telnet \v(session)
set the terminal type, and not only the TELNET-negotiated "telnet
term-type" (which I rather preferred the macro to do). When I changed the
myhost define from vt320 to vt220 the result was, that -- expectedly --
the status line entry changed to VT220, but --unexpectedly-- the remote
TELNET server still received a "VT320". (??)
BTW, mskermit.bwr says: "... to create an override string with command
SET TCP/IP TELNET-TERM-TYPE."
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Instead this should read either "set tcp/ip term-type" or "set telnet
term-type".
