The only serial interface I have for my //e is a Franklin Ace dual interface
that I got for free a while back. Last year when I got my modem the
first thing I did was use a borrowed copy of ASCII Express (very old)
to download Kermit for my //c. At that time I tried ASCII Express on the //e
and it seemed to work ok. Since that time I've downloaded several term
programs, namely z-link, atp, and tic. Unfortunately none of these
seem to work on the //e (it's only a 64K, so z-link and tic are immediately
out of the question). ASCII Express won't do me any good, because
I need vt100 emulation, which this old version didn't have.

Any suggestions on getting kermit or atp to work on my //e with that
interface? I only need something for 3 weeks over Christmas break,
so I'm not going to buy anything. It only needs screen vt100 emulation
and ability to send the cursor-key escapes (esc ] A, etc.). I have
the manual for the card, but it doesn't mention interrupts (which
i realize might be at least part of the problem), I've only tried
the ssc driver, because I didn't have the disk with the other drivers
with me at the time.

Thanks!
