If you ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Kermit is *NOT* public domain. It is freely distributable if at de minimus cost (you can charge for your copying efforts but not for Kermit; but only for a reasonable approximation to your actual costs). [This is my summary; check the actual verbiage from Columbia University.] The protocol is named after Kermit the Frog with kind permission of Henson Associates, Inc. You will find that most versions of Kermit (the program) are copyrighted by both Columbia University and the authors of that particular version. >cannot find it, I can u'load a copy.

This includes some documentation including a tutorial. The remainder of the documentation is a single file which as an archive is 168719 bytes. These files will each fit on a single 5-1/4" floppy. They both will fit on a single 3-1/2" "hard" floppy. I am assuming 320K and 720K respectively. The complete package including full source fits on 5 360K or 2 720K floppies. [I do not have the capacity to write higher densities.] I am using this package to prepare this posting. I am using the H-19 emulation. It is working fine. I usually use the DEC VT102 emulation with excellent results. Randolph J. Herber, @ home: {att|amdahl|clout|mcdchg|laidbak|obdient|wheaton}!yclept!rjh, rjh@yclept.chi.il.us
