Maybe in K95, but I am looking at the traffic on the telnet port with
EtherSnoop http://www.arechisoft.com/ and the 7-bit codes
are pure US ASCII codes http://www.columbia.edu/kermit/ascii.html
US ASCII - 5B
([) 91 133 5B LEFT SQUARE BRACKET
Slovenian - 5B
LATIN CAPITAL LETTER S WITH CARON S< 133 91 5B [
and in the packet form the PC to VMS is 5B, VMS returns 5B to PC
, VMS writes to file 5B ... and does not care about character-set,
it is 7-bit code.
On my keyboard is a key for for Slovene chracter
LATIN CAPITAL LETTER S WITH CARON in the same
place as on your keyboard a LEFT SQUARE BRACKET.
It is up to the terminal or emulator to convert it to the right code
which is sent to the host. When VMS returns the same code
to convert it to the right code in the PC character set (8A)
- CP1250
LATIN CAPITAL LETTER S WITH CARON S< 212 138 8A
and to map the code to the right glyph in the font to display it
correctly.

Unfortunately I know this, because I evaluated abot 15 terminal
emulators and only Reflection was working without problems.
But when I sent a dia.gif to Rasmussen Software
http://www.anzio.com/ , they fixed it in few hours.
Unfortunately they don't have Linux version and unfortunately
it looks like in C-kermit this is not implemented either.
Thanks for your help,
