    If you do c-X c-F DIR: KMP; FIRST KMP, you'll note that Emacs thinks
    this is a link to KMP; DIR: FIRST KMP ... Is it possible that DIR: is
    not handling the LNKDP system call (or whatever it's called) correctly?

It's called LNKEDP, and I just fixed DIR: to handle it properly.
Installed on MC, old version in DEVICE;JOBDEV ODIR.

Suffering arbitrary amounts of tedium, I just now recovered the source
code to the DIR device from DM backup tape and put it in SYSENG;.
I sure hope nothing else important was forgotten over there.

HOSTAT can not work anymore, since it wants to talk to DM's
host status SURVEY server.  Rewriting something similar is
on my list of things to do in my spare time.

I have a program called LOGN which I run when I log in.  
I will check it out and release it for you later today.
It does the right thing with TAC binary mode, also also hacks TTYLOCs.
There is another program called TBMOFF for my logout file (to turn TAC
BINARNY MODE off).

What's the correct way for a LOGIN init file to send
 IAC DO TRBIN and IAC WILL TRBIN to a TAC?

ttyopt/
:if n %Q&%TPTEL>
$(:$ do trbin $ imgout 377 375 0
  $)

works in most cases, except for the %TDQOT screw if your TCTYP is %TNSFW
since then the TAC sees a %TDQOT before every character of the IAC sequence.
I suppose I could save the value of TCTYP in DT somewhere, set TCTYP to zero,
execute the IMGOUT program and then restore TCTYP, but it's not exactly
clear to me how to do this, can it be done from DDT or must a program do it?
If so, I will just write a hacked-up version of IMGOUT called TAC which
accepts TAC commands and sends them.

Every time I vary my procedures even slightly I get screwed by %TDQOT and
TCTYP SOFT not knowing at what level to strip off the %TDQOT's...

but my solution for a :TAC Binary Output Start is still wrong, since if
the poor loser is using CRTSTY he will probably be screwed.  Perhaps
what we really need is a %TDIAC code which is simply intended for
telling TELSER to try to frob the protocol in some way.
