Sorry to post it here but I don't have Kent's E-mail address. Hey Kent I just finished getting Kermit V2.2 working on the C=128. I just made a few changes to the code to get it to work. Tell Ray to get back into hacking on kermit. I need some advise on what should be done to improve this thing. piskacrj@mentor.cc.purdue.edu

Actually there's a fellow down in California who has been working on the same thing. He has added some features, but I don't remember what. You two should get in contact with each other. I'll try to dig up his name and address and email it to you. I posted this reply instead of using email to let people know that Ray isn't doing much of anything Kermit-wise these days--no time. He might get back to it one of these days, but he's not promising anything. He is still committed to a SwiftLink-232 version of 2.2, but that is not finished yet. Robert, you can contact Ray at: moody@pittpa.cray.com By the way, Nick Rossi's new Novaterm v9.2 has really good VT-52/100/102 terminal emulation and a basic Kermit protocol module, so it's now a very reasonable alternative for micro <--> mainframe communications.
