Subject: PERKIN-ELMER 7000 Series Kermit
I've gotten a Kermit for the Perkin-Elmer 7000 Series computers which are
IDRIS based. It's loosely based on the old C-Kermit from the old Protocol
manual. It has Binary file (8-bit and &-quoting), Repeat quoting and server
mode (GET,SEND,and FINISH). It currently has just one bug I can find which
I'm fixing (it repeat quotes 'F' packets in remote GET and local SEND
requests). It has no connect mode, as the 7000 series comes with the cu(1)
command which does the same thing.
The distribution file names have the prefix PE7:
PE7AAA.HLP The readme for the whole thing
PE7BCT.BAS PE7000 Series version of MSBPCT.BAS
(.BOO decoder in Basic)
PE7BCT.C PE7000 Series version of MSBPCT.BAS
(.BOO decoder in Whitesmith's 'C')
PE7MIT.BOO An encoded version of the binary
which is built with MS-DOS Kermit's
procedure to make '.BOO' files.
PE7MIT.EXE A Binary version of the PE7 Kermit executable
PE7MIT.DOC Manual pages and bootstrap procedures
PE7MIT.C IDRIS Kermit
PE7MIT.H IDRIS Kermit header file
PE7PHO.C Dialer program to work with Kermit/cu(1)
PE7PHO.H Dialer program header file
I didn't create this version (Dan Eisner of Perkin-Elmer did), but I did
create a bootstrap document. I translated the bootstrap programs so that I'm
using an existing format for encoding the binary files. For its size it's
one of the most solid Kermit's I've seen so far.
