Seems to me that if you wanted all the features of CKermit, what you
should get is CKermit, not VT100.  All of the "SET" commands you
refer to are CKermit commands, and not intrinsic parts of the Kermit
protocol (except for SET BLOCK-CHECK 3, and even that is a convenience
more than a necessity - do you really have trouble at BLOCK-CHECK 1?).
