That is the differnce. The Windows 98 system had a default locale of
a Western keyboard. From:
ftp://ftp.kermit.columbia.edu/kermit/k95/newbugs.txt
620. Kermit 95 does not accept keyboard input on CJK Windows 95/98
CJK versions of Windows 95/98 do not (by default) install an Input
Locale which supports any of the Latin Code Pages (CP 1250-1258).
Since the Windows 95/98 Console mode does not support Unicode K95
must perform translations of all keyboard events to one of the
Latin Code Pages. Without a translation table all keyboard events
return error values and K95 is unable to process keyboard input.
In 1.1.20 and earlier, if an Input Locale for English, German, French,
... is installed it will still appear that input cannot be processed
since the default Input Locale (CJK) does not include the Latin
alphabet. Pressing Left Alt-Shift one or more times until the Latin
language Input Locale is selected will allow for proper processing of
keyboard input.
1.1.21 and later will support the following behavior:
. K95 will test each installed Input Locale until it finds one
that is able to translate the letter 'a'. When it finds one
that can, it stops and uses that Input Locale as the default
for the session.
. if no input locales are available that can properly translate
the letter 'a'; Kermit 95 will terminate with an error message
stating that an Input Locale must be installed.
. K95 only performs this test if a user presses a key. This way
if K95 is being run from a script or using stdin the test is
never performed.
