There are easier ways to figure out how to issue a command than
reading the source code! Here are just two:
1. Look in the manual.
2. Type "help". This would have led you to "help set host".
2. Use the "?" feature of the command parser:
C-Kermit>set host ? IP host name or number
C-Kermit>set host foo.bar.baz.edu ? Port number
C-Kermit>set host foo.bar.baz.edu 2000
Hey, the syntax is just like Telnet :-)
