At least on my linux setup here, minicom uses /usr/bin/ascii-xfr to do
ASCII transfers (which I assume is what you want in order to initially
transfer kermit source to the Nova). Look under minicom setup (^A O) and
then "File transfer portocols"

Look at the man page for ascii-xfr - the '-c' flag  allows you to
specify the pause after sending each character, which sounds like what
you want. Or the -l flag allows a delay after each line.

Not quite the cleverness that you mention, but it should work.
