Which ones do I need? It's very >confusing. Any help would be appreciated. I am not a big Mac >user, so don't assume very much proficiency on my part. Well, I am only a lowly consultant here, so this is not anything official from Columbia... The latest version I believe is MacKermit 0.9(36)B3 which I use daily and find very stable. Not only does it let you do long packets up to 1024 bytes long, but the keyboard configuration is built into the program rather than in CKMkey...it also keeps track of transactions, writes logs and has statistics on the downloads/uploads. When you anonymously log into cu20b, get KER:xkm936.* which is specifically in the KERMIT-2 directory, but you don't need that info. All you need are the files: KER:xkm936.hqx KER:xkm936.bwr KER:xkm936.msg These should give you all the stuff you need to get rolling.. And of course, the hqx file is a BinHex file... Hope this helps...
