I would be most interestedin this as well.  I'm trying to write 
a Kermit .ini file to allow a Wang PC to call into a Wang VS6000
and pretend to be a VS2110 terminal. (or any Wang async. terminal)  
The problem is I have no idea what these %$@#*(&&^ Wang function
(and editing) keys are supposed to be sending!!!  It's 
not the same control sequence as a Dec terminal, its not 
the actual PC control codes or any escape code I think would 
make sense (of course not, its a Wang), I have no idea
what format these characters should be in and Wang charges >$250/hr
to tell you not much.  (I think my smoke detector just went off...)

Please email any suggestions/info as news postings seem to arrive and
get removed faster than I get a chance to read the news.

Thanks,
Tom
