STKERMIT.*

Contributor: Ken Poulton, kdp.HP-LABS@Rand-Relay

Authors:  Kendall Tidwell & Allen Cole, University of Utah Computer Center,
  for Univac 1100/60

Adapted for HP3000 and general distribution by Ken Poulton.

Usage: kermit [r] [s file...]

When Kermit is invoked without arguments it defaults to a Kermit server.
The 's' argument invokes Kermit in the send state and must be followed
by the file(s) that are to be sent.  The 'r' puts Kermit in the receive
state. The 'r' option is not necessary since the Kermit server will
handle both sending and receiveing.  The Kermit server however, cannot
send more than one file at a time.  Thus, when sending more than one
file it may be desireable to use the 's' option.

Installation:

This is the Software Tools Ratfor Kermit.  The files are:
STKERMIT.LPT    formatted doc (adapted for the 3000)
STKERMIT.DOC    unformatted doc (for ST roff)
STKERMIT.W	ratfor source (with include files)
The second two are in Tools "ar1" format (the standard distribution
format for Tools).

This is a Remote-Only Kermit in Software Tools Ratfor (with
server mode).  It is set up for the HP3000, but Univac 1100
localizations are included as well.

Any Software Tools implementor can install this rather easily on his/her
machine: the machine dependent parts are well flagged and few.  Further
versions will be forthcoming, but this should serve for anyone's initial
implementation.  Implementors should also pick up the standard Columbia 
user's and protocol manuals.

Software Tools is a portable package of over 50 license-free programmer's
utilities.  Implementations for some machines are also
public domain; others are sold commercially.
Software Tools implementations are available for nearly any mini-computer
or mainframe in existence.  Implementations are also available for
generic operating systems such as CP/M, MS-DOS and Unix.
