This is to announce Kermit 95, full-function 32-bit serial and network
communications software for IBM OS/2 2.0 and later, including Warp and
Merlin. This is a brand new product: The native OS/2 version of Kermit
95, which up till now has been available only for Windows 95 and NT.
Kermit 95 1.1.11 for OS/2, or "Kermit/2" for short, includes a full-GUI
Presentation Manager Dialer to set up your connections, with a database
preloaded with hundreds of BBSs, Internet sites, etc, and:
. A large repertoire of terminal emulations
. Integrated Kermit and XYZMODEM file transfer
. A powerful cross-platform script programming language
. Built-in automatic translation of Roman, Cyrillic, Hebrew, and
other character sets
All in a consistent package that operates uniformly over direct or dialed
serial connections, TCP/IP Telnet or Rlogin connections, PATHWORKS, Named
Pipes, or NETBIOS connections, and compatibly with Kermit software for
DOS, Windows, UNIX, VMS, IBM Mainframes, and many other platforms.
Kermit 95 for OS/2 is miles ahead of the last C-Kermit release for OS/2,
5A(191), from April 1995:
C-Kermit 5A(191) Kermit/2 1.1.11
