I routinely use kermit within an xterm for SIO communications, telling
the remote machine that my term type is "xterm".  Two advantages are
worth mentioning: (1) if the remote machine doesn't understand "xterm",
"vt100" will usually suffice, and (2) you've got a file transfer
mechanism handy if you need one.
