[net.micro.pc] BIOS Comm. Interrupt Problem

From:  Daphne Tzoar <CC.DAPHNE@COLUMBIA-20.ARPA>

The problem you mentioned is due to a ROM BIOS error.  The way we got
around it was to not use the INT routine and just write the character
out to the port directly.  The code was modified by the folks at CMU
since the older versions of Kermit were not able to transfer files
with the IBM PC/XT.  All newer versions of the Kermit code have the
correction so maybe you should just get the newer files.
