I'm not going to be of any help here. In fact, I have a similar question.
All I want to do is transfer files between two PCs over a modem. Is there
any way to do this using kermit? There are people available on both ends,
so if a command needs to be entered on each end it is no problem. I
suppose I can purchase a commercial app if that's what it takes, but I
would like to get kermit to do this if it can.
I'm curious: my calculator (HP48 GX) can get an image of my DOS directory
and put/get files by using kermit (kermit in server mode on the PC). Is
there something special in the version of kermit in my calculator's ROM
that allows this, or does it have something to do with using a direct
serial link instead of a modem?
Thanks for any replies,
Troy Smith
