I remember liking the DOS version of MS-Kermit some years ago. The terminal emulation was very complete, even including the DEC graphics character sets (it reprogrammed the character set of the display, if needed). Maybe even Tektronix graphics, I'm not sure. Kermit is normally a serial communications program, but I seem to remember that MS-Kermit supports telnet connections too. I don't know where the name comes from, but it's a freely available program (free only for non-commercial use, I think), and has nothing to do with Microsoft. I found it on SimTel years ago; maybe it's still there... For the original poster: If you're still trying to get NCSA Telnet to work, I suggest you look at the large terminfo database in the ncurses-term package. With luck, it might have a terminfo definition for NCSA Telnet too... Using that should work at least better than the standard terminal types. -- -=- Rjs -=- [EMAIL PROTECTED]
