     I have a dumb terminal hooked up to com3: on my 486 pc.  Kermit
is happy to send and receive from the dumb terminal, what I type
on the pc shows up on the terminal, and what I type on the terminal
show up on the pc.
 
     In dos, when I issue ctty com3:, i get the command prompt
on the dumb terminal, and it accepts what I type up to the CR,
after which it jams terminally.
 
     Why?
 
     Thanks, Homer
