As explained in the documentation, Kermit's default transfer mode
is text. In otherwise, if you don't specify otherwise, Kermit
sends files in text mode. The transfer format for text files
uses CRLF for line termination. The receiving Kermit program is
supposed to translate between this format and its own text
format, whatever that is (LF, CRLF, CR, fixed-length records,
etc). What kind of computer are you sending the file to, and
what Kermit software are you using on it?
If you want C-Kermit to send the file in binary mode, tell it
to "set file type binary" before sending.
