Is that what the kermit command line interface is supposed to emulate? It
runs on lots of platforms, but the code is a nightmare of #ifdef's regarding
the tty i/o.
Does the real thing give an error message when you have typo and then
take the next thing as the beginning of a new line even though you
didn't hit return there?
E.g. you mean to type: "set rec pack 1000", but instead hit "fet":
?Invalid - fet
rec pac
Escape back to your local kermit and prepare to send now.

I hate it when that happens...
