I'm using the OS/2 version of C-Kermit 5A(191). I'm having trouble with
the way that the arrow keys are being interpreted by vi when telneted to
a UNIX session via a slip link. I'm using VT220 (VT100 and 102 do the
same). If I 'set key \584 \KupArr' then vi is seeing the <esc>OA stream
as <esc> - go to command mode
O - open a line
A - insert the letter A
If I do 'set key \584 \{27}OA' I get the same thing.
However if I do:
define UpArrNew out \{27}OA, connect
set key \584 \KUpArrNew
then vi works correctly but the screen flashes back to kermit command mode
momentarily.
I take it that there is a delay between characters with \KupArr that I'm avoiding
with the macro. Any suggestions how to get the normal terminal emulation
to work properly? (or how to make the sceen not flash if I have to use the
macro).
