You have to know exactly what the host is sending. A blank line could
have many representations. Like it says in the manual, take a session
log and see what character sequence the host sent, then give an INPUT
command for that sequence.
Or you can use C-Kermit 7.1 (now in Alpha test):

Right, so give a "close" command to close it when you're done with it,
and/or tell Kermit to "set exit warning off".
As to why Kermit seems to be trying to execute your command file in at the
"OK to close?" prompt, I would have to understand the entire procedure.
How did you invoke Kermit and what commands did you give to it?
Either you're doing something wrong, or there's a bug in 7.1 Alpha.02.
What happens if you run the same procedure with 7.0?
