I am trying to get two dos machines to communicate over a half duplex
line with kermit 3.13. I understand that there is a handoff character so
I should be able to do this.  Does anyone know how. I am using a pair of
rs422 line drivers which are controlled by the RTS signals. The
communication link is a single twisted pair. I am able to make this work
no problem with full duplex operation on two twisted pairs but I need to
use the half duplex setup for the final setup.

One pc is 100m under water and I want to be able to upload new source
code to it after deployment so kermit would be a perfect solution if
this could work.

Any help would be much appreciated.
