As I'm sure Frank will tell us, many third-party implementations of
the Kermit protocol are broken/incomplete/obsolete. I think the best way
for you to do Kermit transfers is to have a "real" kermit on both ends.
Kermit 95, a Win32 application which runs on Windoze/95 and NT, provides
a wide set of terminal emulations, so it'll probably server your needs
adequately in that area, while providing a non-broken implementation of
the Kermit file transfer protocol.
