When the command line is expanded, it can sometimes overflow the command
buffer (try, for example, "kermit s *.*", where you have twenty or so files).
No warning that something has gone wrong. I'd like to see either a very
large command buffer (8K!), or a dynamic command buffer (but watch out for
memory fragmentation). Or at the very least, some sort of warning, and an
option to abort the command.
