MS-DOS Kermit does not use terminal emulation material while
performing input/output etc commands. Thus there is no scriptable way
of sending a particular terminal emulator's F7 key equivalent. There
is no terminal emulation active at that time. To see MSK's keyboard
verbs type SHOW KEY and at the prompt for a key press ? as instructed.
