-------------
Command SET KEY, as all Kermit commands, is executed at the
Kermit prompt, not while talking in Connect mode (because keystrokes
go to the remote host at that stage). You would do well to read both
the user's manual (see the book title on screen two of the MSK Help
command) and the current release notes. They explain how to assign
a macro name to a Connect mode key and what happens when that key is
pressed (it can do what you want).
Hint: set key \keyident {\kmacro-name}
