Subject: Using MS kermit 2.31 with emacs
Keywords: MS-DOS Kermit 2.31, EMACS, Meta Key
If you are using kermit (version 2.31 only) with emacs on a mainframe, the
following file may help you. It assigns all the Alt-keys so that the Alt key
may be used as a "Meta" shift, e.g. Alt-x produces M-x, etc. Note that it
will distinguish correctly between upper and lower case and accepts all
printables. (If anybody has the patience to do the Meta-Ctrl combinations,
please post them!) This actually sends "escapes" so you don't need 8 bits.
This file also sets up the cursor keys to behave as expected.
On extended keyboards (the ones with a separate cursor pad, like PS/2s) you
also get assignments for Page Up/Down, Home, End, Insert, Delete, etc.
Please let me know if you find any problems with this.

[Ed. - Thanks, Joel! Your key definitions file has been put in the kermit
distribution area as msiema.ini ("ms" for MS-Kermit, "i" because it's an
initialization file, "ema" for EMACS), along with this message as msiema.hlp.]

; Emacs keyboard layout for Kermit 2.31
; by Joel Spolsky, Yale Univ. Save this in a file, then
; initialize it by issuing the kermit command
; take filename
; It will set up the keyboard to allow ALT to be used
; as a meta-key, and will allow cursor keys to be used
; with emacs.
; First, define all the ALT keys to send ESC+key
; to simulate "meta"
