- MacKermit 0.9(40) from Columbia University's Kermit Distribution Center
- is the very first program on Macintosh that features Kermit file transfer
- protocol. It is written in MPW C.
-
- Kermit was designed to transfer files between ALL kinds of systems. It
- can be used on every system that support standard ASCII codes. It is not so
- efficient compared with other protocols such as ZModem, YModem, or even XModem.
-
- MacKermit 0.9(40) is not very good at user interface compared to other
- Macintosh applications. However, it does offer Mac users an alternative to
- connect to many mainframes, especially those odd 7-bit machines.
