Frank da Cruz:
I could give you a better answer if I knew which version of Kermit
you were talking about. MS-DOS Kermit? C-Kermit?
I use C-Kermit, MS-DOS Kermit, and CMS-Kermit. Kermit is my preferred
mechanism for getting files [in and] out of CMS.
In C-Kermit, you use \ffiles(wildcard) and the fnextfile() to get
each filename, and assign it to an array member. See the example
in ckcker.bwr (search for "ffiles").
Thanks, next time I have to tackle this kind of problem I'll look for
this feature.
[P.S. it would also be nice to have an analogue to \ffiles() which
would get the list of files from a remote kermit server, put or send
command.]
