Yes, SMARTT is indeed the handler you need.  Unfortunately, last time I looked
there was a small address overlap between SMARTT and KERMIT, and I was not
able to get a copy of SMARTT based at a lower address.  On the other hand
I think I remember someone reporting that the combination works, so perhaps
nothing serious is getting trashed.

If needed I can send a copy of SMARTT.
