Surprisingly the communication portion worked (using BIOS) quite nicely with my very non-compatible MS-DOS machine (it has interrupt driven INT14-interface, so it works even with 9600). (For those few who want to know: the machine is Nokia MikroMikko 2, with Intel 80186, etc) Unfortunately, the display update is not so perfect. But, I use it only for transfering files with long packets. I only wish it had had a command to *force* it to use the BIOS (I assume it means INT14). I have another machine, which is an AT-compatible. And I have a modified PC-IP/Telnet, that catches INT14. If I could force the Kermit to INT14, I could run this on top of TELNET-connection... (I want to go from PC to VAX/VMS with TELNET and call out from there with a modem -- strange, but it would have some uses for me...) -- Markku Savela, UUCP: msa@clinet.fi --- via UGate v1.6 * Origin: watmath (221/163)
