	Standard C-kermit, compiled with the appropriate options, works
	fine.  You have to turn off the optimizer for one of the modules;
	I think it's ckutio.c.  If you want to be sure you have the
	latest version of kermit, get it by anonymous FTP from
	cu20b.columbia.edu.

	It's not clear what you refer to here.  AIX for the RT comes with
	three user interfaces: the familiar U*ix command-line shells,
	a mouse-oriented setup called `Usability Services', and one
	called `DOS Services'.  DOS Services is just a DOS-like command
	interpreter; it doesn't provide any special services except the
	ability to read and write DOS floppies.

	IBM also makes (made?) an AT coprocessor card to run on the
	AT bus in RTs.  I've never seen the software that runs this,
	even though I have a card sitting in a desk drawer somewhere.
	I don't know whether it will run with the new-generation RTs.

	The coprocessor is an AT on a card.  I think it needs 16-bit
	memory on the AT bus, meaning that it doesn't necessarily
	share the RT memory.  You essentially have two separate
	computers sharing the same bus and peripherals, through
	mediation by the VRM.
