This may be a repost - but I think my previous question did not make it to
the net.
I am a very happy and satisfied user of the latest release of kermit for the
CBM 8-bit family, however I still have a problem: I can't set parity.
I have numerous software packages that I use to telecommute all over,
but a frequent requirement I have is setting parity, usually EVEN parity.
At one point I even doctored Frank Prindle's TERM80 to use even parity, but
I would rather use a more featured package - I would rather use KERMIT.
But the problem is I can find no permutation among the settings offered that
works. Nulls, word size, parity - all these are settable, yet every
variation seems to yield nothing but garbage. This is using 300 and 1200
baud.
So - as I see I am not the only Kermit user on the net - is there any recourse?
Thanks - I look forward to insightful answers.

Kermit is perfectly happy running with even parity. It has been well tested. The commands you probably want to use are "set parity even" and "set word-size seven". Ray P.S. Kermit 2.2 will be out before too much longer. P.P.S. Please note that my electonic mail address has changed. You can now reach me at "ray@maxwell.physics.purdue.edu".
