I'm connected to a DCE device which is using XON/XOFF flow control.
I've tried setting Kermit for XON/XOFF and NONE to no effect. Using
a protocol analyser I can see that my PC does indeed stop sending
with no change to any of the control signals. The status line does
not say TRANSMISSION BLOCKED. Another thing I noticed is that when
I get back to the Kermit prompt, if I do a SHOW COMM it says that
RTS and DTR are OFF when in fact they are both asserted.
I am not having any problem with the TCP/IP connections with Kermit95.
They are working perfectly.
