Running Kermit 95 2.0 on Windows XP talking to C-Kermit 8.0.201 on
redhat linux 7.1.
C-Kermit is running in server mode.
If I issue a command in k95 like:
send h:/foo/bar.text /home/tom/bar.txt
I wind up with a file on the linux box in
/home/tom/home/tom/bar.txt
(C-Kermit was started up in the directory /home/tom).
Is this really the intended behavior?
I sort of hoped an absolute filename spec would be interpreted
as really absolute.
Easy enough to work around by simply doing "cd /" before I start
kermit, but it seemed very strange to me, so I thought I'd ask.
P.S. The "kermacs" kermit<->emacs interface is still humming along.
I've got remote directory tracking for shell interaction working
and simple get and put file transfers functioning. Still bazillions
of details left, but I can imagine that it will really get there
someday. I'm still sticking snapshots in:
