I recently asked about whether Novaterm would make use of the C-128 RGB 
80-column monitor the way Kermit for the C-64 does.

I received several responses (all reporting that it doesn't) via email.
I sent thank you messages to all of the responders, but two bounced back
with a host unknown error.  If you responded and didn't receive a 
response from me, then thanks for your response.

In summary:
No, Novaterm does not make use of the C-128 RGB monitor.  Desterm v2.0 was
recommended as well as PowerTerm 128, since both of these are C-128 programs.
However, Desterm V2.0 does not allow my cursor keys to work when I log
onto the Encore system using VT100 emulation.  I use the emacs editor on the
Encore.  I also need Kermit file transfer protocol.  I would use
Desterm V2.0 but all of my modem time is spent connected to the Encore
(except for Q-Link time).

Mark.
