While experimenting to see what the most useful file transfer disply mode is
when running kermit in an emacs shell (with the -# 96 option), I tried the
command:
set command width 80
This seems to get kermit very upset. It just seems to hang forever,
then if I try to prod it by doing something like:
echo fred
I get the Windows XP dialog about k95.exe abnormally terminating and do I
want to send a bug report to Microsoft (I declined :-).
Perhaps this command is trying to talk to the console even though there is
no console in this case? (I was just trying to get it to change its idea of
the screen width to see if it would affect the serial file transfer display
which seems to just print one dot per line when running under emacs :-).
For the curious, I'll be occasionally updating my web page with
snapshots of the work I'm doing. You can find it at:
