Kermit 3.82 will work fine in ProDOS. You have to CREATE your binary copy of the program (and assorted serial driver EXEC's) under DOS 3.3. After you have the program all set in DOS 3.3, whip out Copy 2+ (or some incredibly slow Apple supplied utility) and copy KERMIT382 (a binary file) and KERMIT.INIT (a text file) to a ProDOS volume with BASIC.SYSTEM (Kermit uses Applesoft's "file hooks"). --------------------- Disclaimer: The "look and feel" of this message is exclusively MINE!
