The Kermit software for UNIX is C-Kermit:

Specific versions are available for most UNIX varieties in binary form,
and for (hopefully) *all* UNIX varieties in source form.
You didn't say what the other platform is. However, most likely there is
also a Kermit program available for it. See the Kermit website:
http://www.columbia.edu/kermit/
The scripting language is documented in the manuals:
http://www.columbia.edu/kermit/manuals.html
It should let you create script programs to do just about anything you can
think of.
