Yep, I saw those, but my keyboard has become pretty heavily customized over
the years :-). An intensive session of "show key" commands in both the old
kermit and new kermit got everything translated for me last night and it all
works wonderfully now. The next step is to play around with tweaking file
transfers and see how fast I can get it now that I can talk to the comm port
over the native win32 interface without the dos virtual machine
overhead. I'm sure I'm going to love it once I get everything configured
just exactly right...
P.S. When I made my own keymap file, I put it in the KEYMAPS directory,
and then used the keyboard config menu to tell kermit to use that file (just
giving it the basename of the file, not a full path name), the k95 program
apparently looked for the file in the SCRIPTS directory, not the KEYMAPS
directory, so I moved it to SCRIPTS and everything worked fine.
