Sorry if this is the wrong newsgroup, but can someone tell me where I can get protocol documentation for Kermit, Xmodem, and other popular communications programs? Any information will be very much appreciated. Thanks, Milan mms00786@uxa.cso.uiuc.edu

Any information will be very much appreciated. > Milan > mms00786@uxa.cso.uiuc.edu I can only help with KERMIT. In June 1984 Byte magazine part one of "KERMIT: A file-transfer protocol for universities" is printed pages 255-278. Part 2 is in July 1984 pages 143+. This documentation was good enough for me to be able to implement a working version of the kermit protocol.

The protocol descriptions for X/Y/Zmodem are in directory
pd3:<misc.protocols> on Simtel20.
The Kermit protocol description is available from watsun.cc.columbia.edu
(Kermit's home).
