I too just got my 48, and I too have saved a number of previously posted programs on my UNIX machine. I'd be interested in connecting my 48 to one of the UNIX workstation's RS-232 ports. I'll ask Ian's question another way: Does anyone have the source code for a communications program that will run on a UNIX machine? Kevin Cosgrove <kevinc@tekig5.PEN.TEK.COM>

All you need is a version of kermit for your machine. Check the notes group comp.protocols.kermit for an FTP archive site of many kermit versions. Preston

No I don't. But: What you need is a kermit program - there are a number around. HP supplies kermit on their series 300 machines (dunno about the 800/400). If you have ftp access you should be able to find a site... You may also have to tweak some of the kermit parameters to get things to work.
