a) Probably!
b) How can I find out if it expects the keypad to be in numberic mode?
When I do a show terminal at the kermit prompt the Keypad-mode
is numeric.
c) I set both the terminal and command bytesize to 8 bits.
d) Not likely because this app turns the screen into a scrable game when
when its confused about the terminal type. <g> (I've done this by
setting the term value to hp with a vt emulator.)
Since kermit is sending the same codes before (working) and after (non working)
the application update, I need to do something to overide the behavior of
the app. Is there any way to modify the ckovtk2.ini file to send two escapes
(instead of one) to temporarily fix my problem?
Thanks,
