In various versions of mskermit/and on different computers when using
the kermit prompt to dial a number, I sometimes get the message
"cannot find dialing dir" (may not be exact message). After using the "cd"
command without arguments on the kermit command line - the dialing directory
_is_ found. Also I think the kermit command "cd ." (not a very sensible
command) accomplishes the same thing. I have never noticed a pattern, that
is something I have done previously that ensures that this error will
occur or not occur. I always run kermit from the dir c:\kermit that
contains the bin, dialups.txt, init files and the sub dirs: modems,
pcfonts etc. (the dir you would have if you unzip the full 3.14). Although
I am using 3.15 now.
This is really more of a mystery than a problem.
