C-64/128 Kermit v2.2 features one major enhancement over v2.1: reliable communication at 2400 bps is now possible (but ONLY when using it on a C-128 with the built-in 80 column screen). Also, a few bugs have been stomped on and complete documentation is included. Kermit v2.2 is in two self-dissolving archives. The first SDA is "ker22a.sda". It contains the main program and an autoboot maker that utilizes fast serial routines when possible for C-128 users ("run me now!" is the filename). The second SDA, "ker22b.sda", contains the on-disk version of the v2.2 manual broken up into seven standard PETSCII text files for easy printing on any printer. Enjoy! Kent Sullivan Notes: 1) Kermit v2.2 acts "funny" when a 1351 mouse or a joystick is plugged in. Make sure you unplug any mouse or joystick before using Kermit. 2) Note to C-128 users: Make sure the disk you intend to put Kermit on has the boot sector free (Track 1, Sector 0) so that the autoboot maker can create the Kermit boot sector. If the sector is NOT free, the autoboot maker will not overwrite the existing sector, but stop with a "65,NO BLOCK" disk error. 3) This implementation of Kermit v2.2 was written before the SwiftLink-232 was created, and as such, does NOT support it. 4) If you intend to use Kermit on a European (PAL) C-64 or C-128 be sure to also download "kerpal.txt". 5) The documentation in the second archive is broken up into seven standard PETSCII text files for easy viewing/printing with any word processor or sequential file printer. No formatting or printer codes are present in the files. The text is ready to print as all the necessary spacing, page breaks, etc. are included. Because no formatting or printer codes are included, the manual is rather "plain vanilla". A typeset and bound version of the manual is available if you would like something a little easier to read.
