Don't use Tek mode. Use a VT??? emulation. The Tek 40??s are storage tube terminals, aren't they? They lack all the normal stuff because of the nature of storage tubes. Kermit will use 50 line mode in VT??? emulations. All you have to do is get into that mode before entering kermit, and it adjusts automagically. Or at least it does for ``normal'' systems, ie IBM clones with [EV]GA. I don't really know about your system. If your system is not ``normal'' enough, there may be a setting that will allow 50 line mode. Check the manual. -- Michael Pereckas * InterNet: m-pereckas@uiuc.edu * just another student...
