C-KERMIT FILES FOR UNIX
C-Kermit bears the following copyright notice:
Copyright (C) 1985, 1996, Trustees of Columbia University in the City of New
York. The C-Kermit software may not be, in whole or in part, licensed or
sold for profit as a software product itself, nor may it be included in or
distributed with commercial products or otherwise distributed by commercial
concerns to their clients or customers without written permission of the
Office of Kermit Development and Distribution, Columbia University. This
copyright notice must not be removed, altered, or obscured.
All files for UNIX C-Kermit have Kermit Distribution names beginning with
'ck'. Those particular to UNIX begin with 'cku'. Those that UNIX C-Kermit
share in common with other C-Kermit implementations begin with 'ckc' or 'ckw'.
When retrieving these files via ftp from kermit.columbia.edu, a UNIX computer,
use only lowercase letters in filenames. (Actually, many of the 'cku' files
are also used on other platforms, too.)
All the files needed for UNIX C-Kermit are listed below, and are available
separately in the kermit/f directory. They are also available in a compressed
tar archive in kermit/archives called ckuxxx.tar.Z, where xxx is the C-Kermit
edit number, for example cku192.tar.Z (and also .gz for gunzip). Retrieve
this file to your UNIX system in binary mode. Here is an example of how to
retrieve, unpack, and build:
mkdir kermit
cd kermit
ftp kermit.columbia.edu
Name: anonymous (or "ftp")
Password: (supply your email address)
ftp> cd kermit/archives
ftp> binary (or "type binary")
ftp> get cku192.tar.Z (or .gz)
ftp> bye
uncompress cku192.tar.Z (or gunzip cku192.tar.gz)
tar xvf cku192.tar
make xxx
where "xxx" is the appropriate makefile entry, for example "make sunos41c".
Please read the comments at the top of the makefile for details.
Prebuilt binary executables for selected platforms are in kermit/bin, with
names starting with 'cku'. See kermit/bin/READ.ME for further information.
DOCUMENTATION
C-Kermit 5A is documented in the book "Using C-Kermit" by Frank da Cruz and
Christine M. Gianone, Digital Press, Woburn, MA, USA. Digital Press
ISBN: 1-55558-164-1. Price: US $39.95. Available in bookstores and
computer stores, or order from Columbia University, phone 1-212-854-3703,
MasterCard and Visa accepted. Please purchase the documentation: it should
answer most of your questions, and sales help to fund the Kermit development
and support effort.
UNIX C-KERMIT FILES:
ckuaaa.hlp - This file.
ckuker.nr - UNIX man page for C-Kermit, to be installed in the system's
local man page directory. Format via 'nroff -man'.
ckuker.cpp - C-Preprocessor source for the ckuker.nr file.
The following files should be placed in a world-readable directory, such as
/usr/local/lib/kermit, so everybody can read and/or copy them:
ckermit.ini - Standard C-Kermit initialization file. Rename to .kermrc
and place in your home directory. Or read ckuins.doc to learn
how to set up a system-wide initialization file.
ckermod.ini - Sample C-Kermit customization file. Rename to .mykermrc and
place in your home directory.
ckermit.kdd - Sample dialing directory file. Replace this with your own
dialing directory in the same format, and rename it to .kdd.
ckermit.knd - Sample network directory file. Replace this with your own
dialing directory in the same format, and rename it to .knd.
ckermit.ksd - Sample services directory. Replace this with your own services
directory in the same format, and rename to .ksd.
ckermit.upd - Updates to C-Kermit since the most recent edition of "Using
C-Kermit" was published; documentation for new features.
ckermit.bwr - General C-Kermit "Beware file" - hints and tips, known bugs, etc.
ckuker.bwr - UNIX-specific C-Kermit "Beware File".
ckedemo.ksc, ckevt.ksc, ckepage.ksc -
Macro definitions used in "Using C-Kermit".
FILES FOR BUILDING UNIX C-KERMIT:
ckuins.doc - UNIX C-Kermit installation instructions.
ckcplm.doc - C-Kermit Program Logic Manual.
ckccfg.doc - Documentation for configuration options.
makefile - UNIX makefile for building C-Kermit from source code. See
ckuins.doc for details, and also read the comments at the top
of the makefile. This makefile has hundreds of entries in it;
please be careful to pick the most appropriate one. (NOTE: if
you don't find a file called "makefile" then look for it under
alternative names: "Makefile", "ckuker.mak", etc.
ckubs2.mak - Makefile specifically for 2.10 and 2.11 BSD systems.
ckpker.mk - Makefile specifically for Plan 9.

ckcdeb.h - Header file common to all C-Kermit modules.
ckcasc.h - Header file for ASCII character definitions.
ckcsig.h - Header file for signal handling functions.

ckufio.c - UNIX (and OS/2) system-specific file i/o module for C-Kermit.
ckutio.c - UNIX system-specific communications i/o module for C-Kermit.
ckusig.c - UNIX signal handling functions.
ckucon.c - The UNIX C-Kermit CONNECT command.
ckcpro.w - System-independent C-Kermit protocol module, written in 'wart',
a lex-like preprocessor for C.
ckwart.c - The 'wart' preprocessor.
ckcker.h - Header file for Kermit protocol items.

ckuusx.c - Support functions shared by interactive-mode and command-line
option processors.
ckuusr.h - Header file for user interface.
ckucmd.c - Command-parsing functions (keywords, filenames, numbers, etc).
ckucmd.h - Header file for command-parsing functions.
ckuxla.c - Character-set translation module.
ckcxla.h - System-independent header file for character-set translation.
