I haven't even tried yet, so maybe this will be simple ;-)
I need to develop a script to replace some manual entries to the SMS-800
database. I've done similar scripts, but this one is _very_ vt100-heavy.
I don't know if I can 'input' for a set of text.
Instead of a character string, like 8005551212, I get cursor position
escapes around each character, at least that's what it looks like in a log
session.
I've been doing the logging from a K95 session, but I want to script it
from ckermit 7, unix, and ignore the screen positioning stuff.
Does 'input' ignore escape sequences for the TERM type that kermit is
using, or am I going to have to look for the full string?
