I want to use vt100 and emt to log into a vax, and other machines. When
I do, I can't for the life of me get linefeeds converted into CRLF's.
Here's how I thought it should work:

$ vt100
(in vt100 window...)
$ vctl -cvt_in_nl
$ emt
emt> raw
emt> asc
emt> tctl -cvtraw_nl
emt> f1
Emt remote mode... F1 to exit

(on the vax...)
$ mail
      MAIL> <return>
           MAIL> <etc, etc, etc...>

I've tried every combination of vctl and tctl conversions, and I tried
changing the OUTTERM termination character (which doen't matter, because
I need to conver the input LF to a CRLF, not the output).

It seems to me the none of the -cvt_in_nl and -cvtraw_nl commands have
any effect whatsoever. This is at sr9.7.0.4

Anyone? Thanks a million.
