A Frequently Asked Question, and one which is answered in our FAQ.
The answer is Yes.
It is MS-DOS Kermit 3.14. It runs under Windows, in either full-screen
mode or in a Window, it has good file transfer, and it does Tek graphics.
Anonymous ftp to kermit.columbia.edu,
directory kermit/archives,
binary mode,
file msvibm.zip.
If you had a previous version of MS-DOS Kermit, and you
want to install the new version over it, first make safe copies of
your MSCUSTOM.INI and DIALUPS.TXT files, as well as any other
file you might have modified.
Then unzip (with PKUNZIP or equivalent) using the "-d" switch to
preserve the directory structure. Then read the top-level READ.ME
file for further instructions.
