I have a problem with ckermit for the amiga. I use it to log into
an Unix-machine where I set the terminal to vt100 ( TERM=vt100 ).
I have removed the window borders by patching ckermit to use conman
and do now have 80 chars/line..
It works fine with some programms, but the display gets often messed up
by several programms like nn or elm.. I think they use a control
sequence to insert a line which the Amiga-console is not able to
emulate.
Any suggestions for modifications on either the Amiga or the Unix-side?
Thanks
Andy

There are several other Amiga communications programs (mostly FREE,
even) that do good 80-column VT100 (and even VT200) emulation and
support the KERMIT file transfer protocol (plus X/Y/ZMODEM). Why not
try one of them instead?

Re .1:
The problem is: the unix machine seems to be using an odd protocol
when logging in via modem: With any terminal programm other than
ckermit I get a lot of strange characters after the CONNECT1200
and the communication hangs...
This does not occurr when connecting to another host and then
logging in via telnet or rlogin... ( alas, the host unix machine I
connect to in this way will be unaccessible soon, thats why I use
ckermit... )
