Reply-To: ronald@cc.ic.ac.uk (Ronald Soo Han Khoo) Organization: Computer Center, Imperial College, London, England Date: Tue, 2-Feb-88 19:41:52 WET In comp.binaries.ibm.pc recently: >From: fulton@navion.dec.com (27-Jan-1988 1454) >Message-ID: <8801272158.AA19534@decwrl.dec.com> posted a distribution version 2.30 of kermit. 1) QUESTION: ----------- Does anyone know if its possible to defeat the auto-detect of graphics adapter type? (we run a service here with lots of m/cs with ega-type cards emulating hercules, so its kinda inconvenient for the inexperienced users to keep switching the emulation software around) 2) BUG ??? --------- The documentation posted with it mentions that ctrl-] returns the terminal emulator to text mode from tektronix emulation mode. This doesn't seem to work in the version posted, but oddly, DOES on an older development version (2.29C@cambridge). Does anyone know anything about this ? Sorry to post, but for various reasons, I'm unable to e-mail the chap who posted the binary. Thanks. ------------> (see! followups DO sometimes go to comp.sys. & not comp.binaries! #exclude /* I AM posting on behalf of my */ ronald@cc.ic.ac.uk /* organisation - strange, eh? */ Thanks, Duncan. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Duncan White, | Dept.
