Some time ago, somebody (I didn't save the message) posted a notice that a new version of C64 Kermit with VT100 emulation was available. I quickly sent off my check for $5.00 and have not heard a word. I haven't gone through my cancelled checks to see if it was ever cashed, but I'm beginning to believe that I was the victim of an April Fool's joke. Perhaps the address, "Dr. Evil Labs" should have tipped me off, but I wanted the VT100 emulator badly enough to believe it. Has anyone else (or the poster) got any information regarding this item?

I also sent Dr. Evil my $5 check, and have yet to receive any response. I DID
get the cancelled check, with a very official-looking "DR EVIL LABS" rubber
stamp on the back and the PO Box address. The posting I have is from Ray
Moody, aij@s.cc.puree.edu or pur-ee!s.cc.purdue.edu!aij, and it has a note that
you can also contact Kent Sullivan at corvair@ec.ecn.purdue.edu or
pur-ee!ec.ecn.purdue.edu!corvair.
Ray, Kent, are you REALLY out there? What's up?

HAVE NO FEAR, I received mine 4/28. I loaded the program and tried some simple stuff, but I have not verified any of the vt100 escape sequences. Dr. Evil Labs really exists. They included an add for a shareware adventure game. I have no affiliation with them, but I am a happy customer and want to thank the new author, (Ray Moody). With the manual, it is too big to post to the net. .....BJ

I sent Dr. Evil a $5 check the day that post arrived here and I just got the program the other day. My guess is that you'll get it soon. I think they're just a small business. It's worth the wait, though. Kermit 2.0 is really a fantastic program (I'm using it now). I do have a few complaints (no auto- repeat keys, you have to use CONTROL-H if you want backspace, and the docs are not stored as standard text files), but these are trivial problems and I rarely get a program I don't complain about.
