|
30 ;; I'm not sure, but I think somebody asked about running kermit under shell
|
|
31 ;; mode a while ago. Anyway, here is some code that I find useful. The result
|
|
32 ;; is that I can log onto machines with primitive operating systems (VMS and
|
|
33 ;; ATT system V :-), and still have the features of shell-mode available for
|
|
34 ;; command history, etc. It's also handy to be able to run a file transfer in
|
|
35 ;; an emacs window. The transfer is in the "background", but you can also
|
|
36 ;; monitor or stop it easily.
|
|
37
|
|
38 ;; The ^\ key is bound to a function for sending escape sequences to kermit,
|
|
39 ;; and ^C^Q can be used to send any control characters needed thru to the
|
|
40 ;; system you connect to. A more serious problem is that some brain-dead
|
|
41 ;; systems will not recognize a ^J as an end-of-line character. So LFD is
|
|
42 ;; bound to a new function which acts just like CR usually does in shell-mode,
|
|
43 ;; but a ^M is sent as an end-of-line. Functions are also provided to swap the
|
|
44 ;; bindings of CR and LFD. I've also included a filter which will clean out
|
|
45 ;; any ^M's or ^@'s that get typed at you, but I don't really recommend it.
|
|
46 ;; There doesn't seem to be an acceptably fast way to do this via emacs-lisp.
|
|
47 ;; Invoking kermit by the command " kermit | tr -d '\015' " seems to work
|
|
48 ;; better (on my system anyway).
|
|
49
|
|
50 ;; Here's how I've been using this setup. We have several machines connected
|
|
51 ;; thru a fairly stupid terminal switch. If I want to connect to unix system,
|
|
52 ;; then I use the LFD key to talk to the switch, and ignore any ^M's in the
|
|
53 ;; buffer, and do a " stty -echo nl " after I log in. Then the only real
|
|
54 ;; difference from being in local shell-mode is that you need to type
|
|
55 ;; ^C^Q^C to send an interrupt, and ^C^Q^Z for a stop signal, etc. (since ^C^C
|
|
56 ;; just generates a local stop signal, which kermit ignores).
|
|
57 ;; To connect to a VMS system, I use a shell script to invoke kermit thru the
|
|
58 ;; tr filter, do "M-X kermit-send-cr", and then tell VMS that I'm on a
|
|
59 ;; half-duplex terminal.
|
|
60
|
|
61 ;; Some caveats:
|
|
62 ;; 1) Kermit under shell mode is a real pain if you don't have pty's. I
|
|
63 ;; recently discovered this on our 3b2/400. When kermit can't find a tty, it
|
|
64 ;; assumes it is supposed to be in remote mode. So the simple command "kermit"
|
|
65 ;; won't work in shell mode on such a system. You can get around this by using
|
|
66 ;; the -c (connect) command line option, which means you also have to specify a
|
|
67 ;; line and baud on the command line, as in "kermit -l /dev/tty53 -b 9600 -c".
|
|
68 ;; However, this will cause kermit to exit when the connection is closed. So
|
2
|
69 ;; in order to do a file transfer, you have to think ahead and add -r
|
0
|
70 ;; (receive) to the command line. This means that you can't use the server
|
|
71 ;; feature. The only fix I can see is to muck around with the source code for
|
|
72 ;; kermit, although this probably wouldn't be too hard. What is needed is an
|
|
73 ;; option to force kermit to be local, to use stdin and stdout for interactive
|
|
74 ;; speech, and to forget about cbreak mode.
|
|
75
|
|
76 ;; Please let me know if any bugs turn up.
