I have a question about Kermit v2.29.1, the old version that does
vt220 emulation on a Rainbow.

I have been running it on a 100A and it doesn't seem to do the emulation
completely -- The insert character function doesn't seem to work.  Most
applications don't use this function, so its not very noticeable, however
my termcap for VI does and KERMIT seems to ignore the insert character.

The termcap runs perfectly with a real vt220 and running KERMIT in debug
mode shows it parsing the escape sequence.

Has anyone else had this problem?  Do I have a bad copy?  Is it because
I have a 100A?

Thanks.
