As noted in a previous posting, the source code for MS-DOS Kermit is:
ftp://kermit.columbia.edu/kermit/a/ms*.{c,h,asm}

UUE is for uuencded binaries. BOO is for "boo" encoded binaries, an encoding
we made up a long time ago, which is now pretty much obsolete since since
uuencode and base64 are fairly universal.
