Subject: Any way to get Commo-like screen updating speeds with MS-Kermit?

I'm a big fan of Joe and Frank's work with MS-Kermit. However, I am
typing this using Commo 6.0, because its screen updating speed is
magnitudes better than MS-Kermit 3.14 on my puny XT clone. (I'm on a
14.4k dialup connection to Columbia U.) Previously I've written on how
Telix's screen updating is better than Kermit's as well, but Commo blows
them both out of the water!
I know Kermit's written with assembly, and I presume Commo is as well.
Any hopes of speeding up the screen updates under Kermit in the future?
And yes, I have SET TERM VIDEO-WRITING DIRECT (the default) on--it's
pretty painful if set to BIOS.
Pleaes note this is not a complaint in any way--Kermit's rock-solid
emulation and other features is a big, big plus. Consider it more of a
wish for the future.
Thanks!
