>I'm using Kermit 3.86 and it works perfectly except [...]  during [a]
beep, kermit loses most of the rest of the line.  Is this a problem
with Kermit[?]

	Yes, this is a current feature of Kermit-65 on the IIgs. ;-)

	My solution(s): 1) turn the sound OFF from the Control Panel;
this will make the screen border flash when a BELL character is
received: a VisiBell, as it were.

	2) Use CHIRP to replace the standard Apple BELL.  I've used
this tiny binary for about six months now, specifically because it
fixes Kermit's line-killing Bell problem.  Of course, the author's
name escapes me at the moment: I believe I picked it up on one of
those other $ervice$.  I could email you a copy, or post it to
comp.binaries.apple if interest warrants.
