Subject: New Release of Kermit for Concurrent (nee Perkin-Elmer) 3200
To: Info-Kermit@CU20B.COLUMBIA.EDU
This is to announce version 2.1 of Kermit for the Concurrent Computer
Company (formerly called Perkin-Elmer) 3200 series under OS/32 7.2.1 and
up, by Paul Mamelka, Southwest Foundation for Biomedical Research,
San Antonio, Texas. The major changes from version 2.0 of June 1985 are:
. Name change from Kermit-PE to Kermit-CO
. Horrible bug fixed caused by type (RECKPT instead of RECPKT)
. Minor bugs also fixed
. First 3 letters of command or set option now sufficient for abbreviation
. SYSIO style now controlled by parity setting
. Selection of text, binary, contiguous file types
. End of record selection for text file transmission
. "File Warning" added (filename collision avoidance)
. Initialization file
. Automatic error logging
The new files replace the old ones as PERKIN.* in the Kermit distribution
(even though Paul sent them to us with the new prefix CON to denote the
company name change).
