The "recipe" is easy: Use the I/O byte to get to RDR/PNCH from the Z80 and use "straight" BIOS-calls (which MODEM does anyhow). Our "generic" KERMIT runs on DEC's VT180 and on DEC's RAINBOW with NO changes (and with a two-line change in the I/O byte assignment on DEC's DECMATE II with the CP/M option). Yes, one looses some "speed" on RAINBOW being on the "wrong" side for character-transfer ==> terminal emulation works clean up to 1800 baud. Protocol transfers run nicely up to 4800 Baud.
