While setting up a utility to automate file transfers, using c-kermit
(UNIX version) I ran into a problem: I couldn't figure how to automate
the sending of an escape sequence.  More specifically, after puting
the remote kermit into server mode, I can't figure out how to avoid
manually entering an escape sequence ( ctrl-\ c ) so that the script
running from the other kermit could begin sending commands to the
server.

Also, I noticed that help shows that there's a "remote kermit command"
command, but I got an error message indicating that this wasn't
implemented.

Thanks in advance for any information that anyone can provide about
any of the above questions!
