[comp.sys.mac.comm] Mac Kermit

Hi.  I've got a couple of quick questions and a bug report (for whoever is
interested) about Kermit version 4F(094) for the Macintosh.

Questions:
1) Is there any documentation?  I've been using this program (and its
   ancestors) for years now, and while it's about as straightforward as you
   can get, I would like some info about some of the options.

   1a)  If no documentation exists, what does the Window value mean in the
        file xfer window.  Can this program do "sliding windows?"

2) How is the version number decoded?

Bug:
The parity setting is not saved.  For example, I need even parity to talk to
my machine at work, and the parity setting always comes back as None.  All
settings are saved in the settings document.
