Re: VT100 support

In the documentation with the latest Kermit for AOS/VS, it talks about
the XLT characteristic for VT100 support, and mentions the need to
sysgen this in advance.

All our System Generation is done by the software house that supply
our library system. They say there may be a price to pay if I ask for
VT100, that I might lose some ports on my IACs, but they don't seem to
know for sure.

My objective is simply to run utilities like PED and SED with
MS-Kermit instead of our D211 emulator. I would only need VT100 support for
a few lines, say up to 4.

Can anyone clarify the limitations of VT100 support ?

My set up is AOS/VS 7.67 with three IAC16s of 1987 vintage and one
IAC8.
