Peter: Kermit 2.11 is an out-dated Kermit, more to the point, I never was able to get binary transfer to work with it. However, I'm using a different sort of system here, so it may yet work for you BUT you have to SET EIGHT-BIT-QUOTING ON and SET BYTE-SIZE 8-BIT as well as SET FILE-TYPE BINARY on the Apple end. If you can successfully download character files, you can get Kermit 3.78, download it with 2.11, and have a MUCH nicer kermit. You'll need to send a series of one line mail messages to LISTSERV@BROWNVM.BITNET The one line message should be: SENDME APPLE2-L 87-xxxxx (where xxxxx is the number of the file you want) For example: To get the first part of the main program, SENDME APPLE2-L 87-00016 The instructions for getting the files EXEC'd and the program working are in SENDME APPLE2-L 87-00028 I've had good luck transferring binary files to and from our IBM mainframe with Kermit 3.78 * APPLE2-L Apple II List * (Individual postings) * rec last - change * filename filetype GET PUT -fm lrecl nrecs date time Remarks * -------- -------- --- --- --- ----- ----- -------- -------- ---------------- APPLE2-L NOTEBOOK PRV OWN V 50 24 87/08/06 00:54:48 -> test APPLE2-L 87-00001 PRV OWN V 73 11 87/08/12 00:03:16 -> LIST APPLE2-L 87-00002 PRV OWN V 73 19 87/08/12 01:12:46 -> could someone APPLE2-L 87-00003 PRV OWN V 73 15 87/08/12 02:02:20 -> Subscribe APPLE2-L 87-00004 PRV OWN V 75 9 87/08/12 10:25:19 APPLE2-L 87-00005 PRV OWN V 73 128 87/08/13 15:05:44 -> BLU docs APPLE2-L 87-00006 PRV OWN V 75 248 87/08/13 15:07:34 -> BLU exec'able APPLE2-L 87-00007 PRV OWN V 75 12 87/08/13 16:35:17 -> Re: could som APPLE2-L 87-00008 PRV OWN V 78 42 87/08/14 10:19:11 -> software name APPLE2-L 87-00009 PRV OWN V 75 265 87/08/14 11:10:33 -> un squeeze ut APPLE2-L 87-00010 PRV OWN V 75 244 87/08/14 13:06:29 -> esp16.doc (re APPLE2-L 87-00011 PRV OWN V 73 15 87/08/14 13:50:41 -> Kermit...
