C-Kermit is not, itself, a terminal emulator. It is a "semitransparent
communications pipe" between your terminal or emulator (e.g. xterm) and
the remote host.
CEO wants you to have a DG terminal type (DASHER 200 or above), but I
am not aware of any Linux software that does DASHER emulation; xterm
certainly doesn't. So you have to tell AOS/VS that you are using a
VT100, which xterm does support. The commands (at the AOS/VS CLI
prompt) are:
char/on/nas/xlt
(This is explained on page 544 of "Using C-Kermit" 2nd Ed.)
