In C-Kermit, there is a "service" directory that allows this sort of
thing. I had at one point ported this to MS-Kermit. The only
significant issue was the lack of arrays in MS-Kermit releases that
were available at the time. I seem to recall that arrays are being or
have already been added to MS-Kermit.
I'll see if I can dig this up. I used to use that all the time,
before I stopped using MS-DOS/Win 3.1 as my primary environment at
home. I'll e-mail it to you, Mike, if I find it. If anyone else is
interested, let me know.
