Overview

Using MS-DOS Kermit is a book/disk package designed to help both technical and non-technical PC users alike to link their IBM PCs, PS/2s, or compatibles to other computers and data services -- e.g., Dow Jones News/Retrieval, MCI Mail, databases like BBS, DIALOG or TYMNET, and any mainframe -- throughout the world. Based on the author's close involvement with development and distribution of the Kermit transfer protocol, the guide supplies easy-to-follow, step-by-step instructions, meticulously compiled tables, and at-a-glance information on important areas.

  • Communication support for serial ports, modems, and PC networks -- Novell, AT&T, IBM, TCP/IP, DECnet, and many more
  • DECVT320, VT220, VT100, and other terminal emulations, with screen rollback and capture, colors, printer control, and flexible key mappings, plus Tektronix graphics
  • Reliable transfer of text and binary files
