  22. :
  23. Let's say you are talking about Kermit 95 on Windows 9x/ME/NT/2000/XP.
  24. In that case it's super-easy.  Give the script the ".ksc" extension,
  25. which is associated with Kermit 95.  Have the URL point to the script,
  26. e.g.:
  27.  
  28.   ftp://kermit.columbia.edu/kermit/scripts/ckermit/helper.ksc
  29.  
  30. or:
  31.  
  32.   http://www.columbia.edu/kermit/helper.ksc
  33.  
  34. Then clicking on the URL runs the script.  If the latter form doesn't
  35. work, check your browser's helper application list.
