Subject: kermit/Osborne Executive
I recently noticed a request on this mailing list for a version of
kermit to run on the Osborne Executive. I have an Executive and tried
unsuccessfully to get several different cpm3 'generic' versions to run.
I don't know if my failure was due to equipment bugs in my particular
system, operator error on my part, or what. In any case I finally got a
'generic' version from simtel20 written in turbo pascal. That also (of
course) did not run completely on my system. However, I modified it to
directly address the SIO ports instead of using the built-in AUX port of
the 'generic' versions. Now it runs just fine.
I would be happy to share it with anyone interested. I haven't so far
because I thought that maybe I had a flaky piece of hardware and my
problems were unique.
