January, 1988 (CP-6 Kermit, version 1.00)
The following are changes/additions made to CP-6 KERMIT since the
original version (0.95) was sent to Columbia University in
December, 1985. Many thanks to John Stewart of Carleton University,
Tom Erskine of CRC, Mike Iglesias of UC Irvine and Mike Schmidt of
Honeywell Bull, Canada, for their help and supplied code.
Recognize ARC and LIB as default binary file extensions.
Optimize code that strips parity off incoming characters.
Block move of packet data to eliminate looping.
Eliminate redundant checksum calculation.
Handle repeat counts in file name packet.
Use FSFA on file that is being received or sent.
Added the ability to specify up to two EOR characters instead of
assuming CR/LF. This is useful, for instance, when communicating with
some software on Apples.
Fixed bug that caused KERMIT to Memory Fault if a 'LIST' command
was issued with no fid specified.
Enhanced the SHOW command to show some of the SETable things that
it didn't before (EG, Binary EXtensions) as well as values for
all the new commands.
The PARITY used for a transfer is now logged in the LOG file.
The activation character for received packets is now included in
KERMIT "debug" files.
Fixed bug that prevented records with embedded CR's from being
received correctly.
Relaxed syntactical constraints on some commands so optional blanks
are permitted.
Added the SET FILE PREFIX, SET FILE SUBDIRECTORY CHAR and
SET FILE SUBDIRECTORY { ON | OFF } commands.
Made it possible to interrupt multiple file transfers so you can
quit the current file or the entire group of files.
Added the CG and STATION options to allow transfers through ComGroups.
