I have a PC running kermit connected via a terminal card to a Xenix
box (2.3.4). The Xenix box's principal function in life is to run a
large foxbase application. I cannot get the ansi screens to display
right and the function keys to work right at the same time.
The function keys seem to work best when kermit is emulating a Wyse50;
I get the screen *almost* right (cursor positioning is still flaky)
with Ansi. But if I choose Wyse50, then the Ansi graphics characters
do not display correctly. The wierd thing is that the graphics are
fine, e.g., in the vsh screen, under Wyse50, yet when I go into the
foxbase application it doesn't display right (I figure it's probably
stripping the high bit). I've tried various combinations of 7-bit vs
8-bit, code pages, character sets, etc.
Any tips would be appreciated.
P.S. The Link terminal on another port works fine; I believe it is
doing Wyse emulation.
