Igor,
with all due respect, Kermit was what brought me to computing during
Medical School 25 years ago, and eventually after playing with an
enormous variety of Kermits via a few detours (Xenix, Minix, Linux,
X25, UUCP, TCP/IP) lead to Namibia being connected to the Internet and
me (now an Obstetrician & Gynaecologist) still running .NA, but why *ON
EARTH* would one want to play with a 286 today?
You can get reasonable PCs for 200-300 Euro these days, put up linux and
if you really feel retro bring MS-DOS up on WINE. Then you do some
serious searching for the SIMTEL archieves where you should find an
assembler that should get Kermit 3.16. There was a very decent MAKE.EXE
out there if I recall correctly.
But if it's only a terminal you are looking for, ATerm on the iMini
comes to mind, and C-Kermit runs there too.
greetings, el
