You can find Dat's OOP programming examples in the new C-Kermit scripts
library:
http://www.columbia.edu/kermit/scriptlib.html <-- Kermit scripts in general
http://www.columbia.edu/kermit/ckscripts.html <-- C-Kermit scripts
In the C-Kermit binaries section, you'll find binaries for Continuum
hardware with VOS 13.3.3y and various combinations of TCP/IP and X.25
networking.
Please note that the previous version of C-Kermit, 6.0, for VOS did not
include any support at all for networking. The new version lets you make
(and automate) not only serial connections, but also TCP/IP and X.25
connections if you have the corresponding Stratus products installed, and
of course, also transfer and manage files when VOS is on the far end of
the connection (and/or on the originating end).
If anybody can make binaries for other VOS versions and/or other hardware
platforms, please contact me. C compiler required.
Thanks!
