This seems to be a bug, having to do with whether the character-set name
has a dash in it. It should be fixed in the second patch, which will be
available soon. The workaround, in the meantime, is to put "set terminal
character-set latin1" in your K95CUSTOM.INI file (assuming you want to use
Latin-1 all the time). If you only want to use it when connecting to
certain hosts, but not others, there are other tricks you can do. Send
email to kermit-support@columbia.edu if you want to go into that.
