According to the Kermit documentation, for Kermit to approach the
transfer speed of ZModem, it is necessary to be able to set long
packets and multiple sliding windows. Does anyone know what comm
programs or, particulary, Communications Toolbox Tools are
available for the Mac that properly support sliding windows?
The terminal program MacKermit available from kermit.columbia.edu
does not work on my Mac SE, System 7. It bombs the Mac
repeatedly.
The Claris Kermit CTB Tool 1.0 supports either long packets or
sliding windows but not both simultaneously.
VersatermPro has an internal Kermit that does not do windows.
Neither does the public-domain Kermit Tool GH 1.2 or the internal
Kermit in ZTerm 1.0b3.
Are there better CTB Tools available, either public-domain or
commercial?
