Well, seems you need to get the newest version of Kermit for OS/2 which
is currently in late beta and should be out soon.
I encountered exactly that problem, and it is not there anymore in the
betas. (I am amongst the beta testers.).
Jeffrey Altman explained that to me such that some timing thing and the
current position information that OS/2 sends after each key stroke
confused old C-Kermit 5A(191), or so. I suppose he'll correct me here
in case I got it completely wrong. Anyway, it now works!
