 	Might you be willing to share the "right options" & Howto "properly 
configure" for xterm to be used as a DEC Terminal ?  I would be especially 
grateful if you might have information on using a LK450 keyboard attached to
linux system to have it recognised as such in an xterm ON a system running VMS .

 	IF you can find a copy PC-Kermit was a good one ,  Had many options 
Standard Unix kermit is quite good as well .  But (in linux) fails my lk450 
recognition test .
