Typing "Kermit -?" at the $ prompt on the OS9 machine yields the following
message:
Kermit program Version 1 Release 5
Usage: Kermit c [le line esc.char] (connect mode)
or: Kermit s [difl line] file... (send mode)
or: Kermit r [difl line] (receive mode)
or: Kermit h [difl line] (host server mode)
or: Kermit g [difl line] file... (get file from server)
or: Kermit q [diful line] (quit xemote host server)
This is how I have tried to transfer the image files:
OS9 machine: $shell <>>>/s7 (opens serial port #7)
Win98 machine: [C:\Kermit95]K-95>take image.txt
The image.txt command file reads as follows:
set carrier off
set line com1
set speed 9600
set window 1
set command bytesize 8
set terminal bytesize 8
set flow xon/xoff
set duplex full
set parity none
set send packet-length 94
set receive packet-length 94
set send timeout 10
set receive timeout 15
set handshake none
set file type binary
connect
Once connected, I type the following on the terminal screen:
$kermit s /hard/export/image.i1
The following information is displayed while the image file is transferring:
Current directory: c:\kermit95
communications device: com1
communication speed: 9600
parity: none
receiving: image.i1 => image.i1
file type: binary

last message:
The OS9 system was recently donated to our department from industry along
with a scanning electron microscope. Unfortunately, much of the
documentation seems to have been misplaced. I don't have any documentation
for Kermit 1.5.
Thanks for your help!
