I'd like to know if there's any way that I can get (MS-)Kermit to
receive a file "automatically" when the remote end runs a Kermit that
is attempting to send a file. As far as I can tell, right now once I
start the remote Kermit sending, I have to get out of CONNECT, and
then manually issue a RECEIVE command, then reconnect. This seems
quite pointless, so probably there is a way to make it all happen
automatically. But I haven't been able to find it in the
documentation.
Also, is there a "dial this number and connect me to it" command?
So far, I have been stuck doing a CONNECT and then manually issuing
ATDT to the modem.
And why is it that Kermit comes with almost no documentation? Or is
the rumor that Kermit is "free" just a front for selling books?
