Certainly.  I use a small awk filter to turn a list of targets that might
vary from 10 to 1000+ lines, into a kermit script that sometimes takes
hours to execute.  I can produce the script in the daylight hours, and
start the kermit execution in the evening from an "at" job.


(I like the pdf copy of the manual that now comes on the
 K-95/ckermit-7.0 CDROM.  I can search, and, more importantly for my fat
 fingers, cut and paste.)
