Thank you for your reply, but it really doesn't seem to work. I did the
following:
started MSKermit,
set file character-set cp850,
set transfer character-set latin1
"connect"
and logged into the linux system. There I typed "kermit" and
set file character-set latin1
set transfer character-set latin1.
1) To transfer files from the DOS PC to the linux system, I
typed "receive" at C-Kermit's prompt, then pressed Alt+X, returned to
the MSKermit prompt, and
send file.txt
This works flawlessly (accented characters are exactly the same on the
other side!!:-) - but when I try to send files from the linux system to
the PC, instead of (1) I did:
2) (at C-Kermit's prompt)
send file2.txt
I escape back to MSKermit, type
receive
and the file is transferred, but the accented characters are
unrecognizable. What am I doing wrong?
Thank you in advance for any tips!
Best regards,
Manuel Arriaga
