The problem that I have with Kermit and Desqview is that after I initiate
a file transfer and switch out of the Kermit window, Kermit continues to
write status information (Number of blocks transferred, retries, etc.) to
the screen, thus overwriting the foreground task's display.  I assumed that 
this behavior is because Kermit is stuffing bytes directly to screen RAM.
But, if someone has settings that avoid this problem, I'd appreciate
getting them.  Perhaps there are other people on the net that would
appreciate that information as well.
