It's a "real" situation in that I'm using Kermit as part of a
setup to observe a stream of test-data I'm sending through a
prototype of a new product.

It's a TCP<-->serial gateway, sort of like a dumb terminal
server.

9600 baud serial connection via Comtrol RocketPort 32-port
serial board under Linux.
I'm using netcat to shove Unix textfiles into the terminal
server which acts as a transparent conduit between a serial
port and a TCP port. I connect the terminal-server's serial
port to a serial port on a Unix machine and use Kermit to
display the data stream. It would be convenient to have the
linefeeds in the text files displayed as CR/LF, but it's just a
convenience. I can add CR's to the files for the tests I'm
running.
