  22. : Hi
  23.  
  24. : What is the standard way to execute a kermit script within
  25. : MS-DOS?
  26. : I've been doing it by:
  27.  
  28. :     kermit < file.scr
  29.  
  30. : but the script doesn't seem to do everything as it should.
  31. : e.g. 'cd' doesn't work
  32. :      'if success/failure' doesn't work
  33.  
  34. I use:
  35.  
  36.     kermit take file.scr
  37.  
  38. I also recommend the current MS-Kermit 3.15 beta for MS-DOS:
  39.  
  40.     ftp://kermit.columbia.edu/kermit/test/bin/msk315.zip
  41.  
  42. which for maximum benefit requires that you already have MS-Kermit 3.14 
  43. release version:
  44.  
  45.     ftp://kermit.columbia.edu/kermit/bin/msvibm.zip
  46.  
  47. PKUNZIP this file with 
  48.  
  49.  pkunzip -d msvibm 
  50.  
  51. using pkzip 2.04g
  52.
