[comp.sys.cbm] SIMPLE question about kermit

mullen@b.gp.cs.cmu.edu (John Mullen) (07/30/88)

I was wondering if there is a way for a friend of mine to type a letter on
a Commodore 64 and then connect to a CMU vax and insert the file into the
vax and then send it and then get off of the modem as to keep the phone bill
to a very minimum.  What we are trying to do is comminucate using computers
without paying for a phone bill.  I was told that kermit is what I want to
use.  Is this true?  If so, how do I get it, is it at a local store, etc...

						
						Thanks for any help,

Since you're at CMU, it ought to be easy.  Somebody there should have the
Kermit master distribution tapes, or know how to use internet to ftp it
from CU20B.
