The latest MS-Kermit is 2.32/A. It's available, along with many
informative support files, from SIMTEL20.

Some files may have been added or deleted since that date.
See file PD1:<MSDOS.FILEDOCS>AAAREAD.ME for additional information.

The command to set MS-Kermit's file type for binary transfers is:
SET EOF NOCTRL-Z
The command to set Unix Kermit's file type for binary transfers is:
SET FILE TYPE BINARY
In order for this to work correctly your MS-Kermit and Unix Kermit
will have to be set for the same parity (none, even, odd, space,
mark).
If you set both Kermits for parity none that should give you an 8-bit
path (assuming your dial-up supports that). Kermit will then transfer
the file without need for quoting 8th bits.
The latest MS-Kermit and Unix Kermit supports long packet transfers of
1000 bytes. It's much faster than the old 94-byte Kermit packets.
SET SEND PACKET 1000
SET RECEIVE PACKET 1000
