0af017e9 | 26 | |
27 | ;; I'm not sure, but I think somebody asked about running kermit under shell | |
28 | ;; mode a while ago. Anyway, here is some code that I find useful. The result | |
29 | ;; is that I can log onto machines with primitive operating systems (VMS and | |
30 | ;; ATT system V :-), and still have the features of shell-mode available for | |
31 | ;; command history, etc. It's also handy to be able to run a file transfer in | |
32 | ;; an emacs window. The transfer is in the "background", but you can also | |
33 | ;; monitor or stop it easily. | |
34 | ||
35 | ;; The ^\ key is bound to a function for sending escape sequences to kermit, | |
36 | ;; and ^C^Q can be used to send any control characters needed thru to the | |
37 | ;; system you connect to. A more serious problem is that some brain-dead | |
38 | ;; systems will not recognize a ^J as an end-of-line character. So LFD is | |
39 | ;; bound to a new function which acts just like CR usually does in shell-mode, | |
eb8c3be9 | 40 | ;; but a ^M is sent as an end-of-line. Functions are also provided to swap the |
0af017e9 | 41 | ;; bindings of CR and LFD. I've also included a filter which will clean out |
42 | ;; any ^M's or ^@'s that get typed at you, but I don't really recommend it. | |
43 | ;; There doesn't seem to be an acceptably fast way to do this via emacs-lisp. | |
44 | ;; Invoking kermit by the command " kermit | tr -d '\015' " seems to work | |
45 | ;; better (on my system anyway). | |
46 | ||
47 | ;; Here's how I've been using this setup. We have several machines connected | |
48 | ;; thru a fairly stupid terminal switch. If I want to connect to unix system, | |
49 | ;; then I use the LFD key to talk to the switch, and ignore any ^M's in the | |
50 | ;; buffer, and do a " stty -echo nl " after I log in. Then the only real | |
eb8c3be9 | 51 | ;; difference from being in local shell-mode is that you need to type |
0af017e9 | 52 | ;; ^C^Q^C to send an interrupt, and ^C^Q^Z for a stop signal, etc. (since ^C^C |
53 | ;; just generates a local stop signal, which kermit ignores). | |
54 | ;; To connect to a VMS system, I use a shell script to invoke kermit thru the | |
f1180544 | 55 | ;; tr filter, do "M-X kermit-send-cr", and then tell VMS that I'm on a |
e41b2db1 | 56 | ;; half-duplex terminal. |
0af017e9 | 57 | |
58 | ;; Some caveats: | |
59 | ;; 1) Kermit under shell mode is a real pain if you don't have pty's. I | |
60 | ;; recently discovered this on our 3b2/400. When kermit can't find a tty, it | |
61 | ;; assumes it is supposed to be in remote mode. So the simple command "kermit" | |
62 | ;; won't work in shell mode on such a system. You can get around this by using | |
63 | ;; the -c (connect) command line option, which means you also have to specify a | |
64 | ;; line and baud on the command line, as in "kermit -l /dev/tty53 -b 9600 -c". | |
65 | ;; However, this will cause kermit to exit when the connection is closed. So | |
9b053e76 | 66 | ;; in order to do a file transfer, you have to think ahead and add -r |
0af017e9 | 67 | ;; (receive) to the command line. This means that you can't use the server |
68 | ;; feature. The only fix I can see is to muck around with the source code for | |
eb8c3be9 | 69 | ;; kermit, although this probably wouldn't be too hard. What is needed is an |
0af017e9 | 70 | ;; option to force kermit to be local, to use stdin and stdout for interactive |
71 | ;; speech, and to forget about cbreak mode. | |
72 | ||
73 | ;; Please let me know if any bugs turn up. | |
