I'm looking for a version of Kermit that will run on the CP/M 2.2 operating system used by the Toshiba T-100. Toshiba sold about 3,000 of these machines during 1982-1983. The serial i/o port on this machine differs from many of the other CP/M machines still in existence. I've tried running Generic CP/M Kermit on the T-100, but had no results. If anybody knows of a successful implementation of Kermit on a T-100, I'd appreciate the information. The problem that I've experienced concerns the design of the T-100. The machine originally cost $800, but was shipped with no detailed descriptions of the computer. Toshiba offered to sell some users an advanced technical manual for the T-100, but they wanted to charge $250! Toshiba sold a communication program with the T100. The program was called WhizLink and had a number of bugs. I've been unable to get this program to transfer files over Telenet. WhizLink was based on the xmodem protocol for transferring files. If you have any information about transferring files using the Kermit or xmodem protocols with the Toshiba T100 please contact me. William E. Mihalo ihnp4!chinet!mihalo (uucp address)
