[comp.sys.cbm] Kermit and sequential files

prindle@NADC.ARPA (Frank Prindle) (03/08/88)

It is quite simple to have C64 Kermit convert files between ASCII (on the
host) and PETASCII (on the C64). Just enter the following two commands:

set file-type pet
set file-byte eight

That's all there is to it - all ASCII files downloaded will be converted to
PETASCII before being written on disk - all PETASCII files will be converted
to ASCII before being sent to the host! This applies both to older Kermit 1.x
versions and the newer Kermit 2.0 version.

Sincerely,
