[comp.sys.apple] WANTED: Terminal Program for Mac Plus

paul@devon.LNS.PA.US (Paul Sutcliffe Jr.) (09/19/89)

I have a friend who has a Mac Plus, and he wants a dumb terminal
program (no terminal emulation needed; just file transfer).  Is there
a Kermit available for that system?  If not, is there any other
program available?

Please respond via email, I do not normally read this group.

Yes, there is a Mac Kermit (available by ftp from cunixc.columbia.edu)
and from OKSTATE (for most UUCP sites, although the instructions are
a bit complex).

You would be more likely to get details about how to get Kermit and other
pulic domain or shareware communications software for the Macintosh from
info-mac@sumex-aim.Stanford.Edu (I'm copying info-mac to hurry that along
a little :-)
