You also have two other file-transfer-display options. One of them is a full-
screen curses affair, with all sorts of information continuously updated
including "percent done", "estimated time remaining", "characters per second",
and so on.
The complete UNIX C-Kermit package, including source code, initialization
files, installation instructions, documentation updates, hints and tips files,
etc, but NOT binary executables is available as follows:
anonymous ftp to kermit.columbia edu, directory kermit/archives,
binary mode, file cku190.tar.Z (or .gz for gunzip). Uncompress,
untar, read the instructions at the top of the makefile, and then
give the appropriate "make" command, for example:
make linux
make solaris2x
make hpux90
which should produce an executable called "wermit". Try it out
and if it's OK, install it as "kermit" in the desired location,
such as /usr/local/bin. Read the ckuins.doc file for additional
installation instructions.
Binary executables for selected UNIX configurations are available
via anonymous from kermit.columbia.edu, directory kermit/bin,
files ckuker.* (there are many of these) -- get the READ.ME file
from the same directory and read it first. Examples:
ckuker.rs6aix32c.3.2.4 - IBM RS/6000 AIX 3.2.4
ckuker.rs6aix41c - IBM RS/6000 AIX 4.1.x
ckuker.irix60 - SGI IRIX 6.x
ckuker.sco* - Various SCO UNIX / Xenix versions
ckuker.solaris2xg.2.3 - Solaris 2.3 SPARC
ckuker.solaris2xg.2.4-Intel - Solaris 2.4 Intel
ckuker.unixwarenetc - UnixWare
Please be sure to also order the manual, since it shows you how
to use the software and how to get the most out of it, and sales of
the manual are the primary source of income that pays for our work.
