I've tried: stty -f /dev/tty01 clocal -hupcl 57600 kermit -y script But as soon as kermit exits the modem gets hung up. Do I need to write my own scripting tool that will not hang up the modem on last close? Also, I've regenerated the kernel with the syscons drivers but I would like to change the Backspace key so it sends a delete '\x7f' character I see information on how to change the keyboard table in the syscons man page but nothing about how to change one key. I'd like to do this so I don't have to worry about which key I hit in emacs... Thanks Chris Hilton
