I should add, however, that there will always be platform differences. For
example, Windows uses TAPI modem names, whereas Unix uses (e.g.) /dev/ttyS0.
Filename and directory syntax vary from platform to platform, etc. Obviously
such differences must be accounted for in a portable script. However, the
language itself is identical in Kermit 95 and C-Kermit of the same vintage.
