I have a more basic question.  Is there really a way to get a Rainbow to
respond like a vt220?  I'm new to this newsgroup and am managing three
rainbows that often talk to VMS.  I have, in the past, been accepting fate
and using the builtin vt102 firmware.  Does kermit (even poorly) know about
a vt220?

BTW--could pfh be having trouble with unix?  I mean, VMS supports an 8 bit
world and real 220's have both 8 bit and 7 bit support.  Unix normally 
provides a 7 bit world...
