No, G-Kermit does not have the ability to send files from
or to a pipe or stdin/out. When using G-Kermit as an
external protocol (by including the -X command-line option),
files are referenced in the normal way in the file system.
The only difference is that in this case G-Kermit does not
attempt to alter the terminal modes.
If you need to pipe stdin or stdout through the Kermit protocol,
you can use C-Kermit for that:
