---------------
The interface provided by tnglass is the standard Bios Int 14h
for serial ports, and that lacks the notion of session status. Hence
Kermit does not know the Telnet session has ended. If you use Kermit's
own TCP/IP stack then it knows all about session status; the same is
true with FTP's utilities which are built to work with their stack.
The simple keypress to exit Kermit connect mode is ALT-x, which
is easier to type than ESC ] c (though both work).
