There are two things that come to mind as possibilities. First, if xterm isn't getting switched into Tek mode, who knows what you'll see displayed. To force it into Tek mode, start it with the -t option or in a vt100 xterm window do a ctrl-middle click and you'll get a menu where you can select "Switch to Tek Mode." The other possibility is that depending on setting, kermit might not be 8-bit clean. IIRC the Tek escape codes need the terminal line to be in 8-bit mode. When I'm connecting to a device speaking the Tek escape codes, I usually use cu instead, and it's generally worked pretty well for me. BLS
