-
-
- o Edit 3.3.111
- Make Kermit-32 not eat the parity from a CR if a LF doesn't follow
- it when writing an ASCII file.
-
- The following are know problems with Kermit-32 3.3.111.
-
- o Commands are upcased so that LIB$TPARSE will scan the command
- correctly. This causes problems when attempting to set the prompt
- and sending server commands to a UNIX based Kermit.
-
- o Kermit-32 will quote multiple characters with "~" in a file name
- even if the REPEAT_QUOTE character is set to space.
-
- o When receiving a file of type FIXED, if the final record is not
- exactly 512 bytes, then an error occurs and the receiving Kermit
- blows up.
-
- o Kermit-32 can hang on a virtual terminal due to XON-XOFF
- processing between the VAX and a remote system.
