This was in response to an earlier note about Kermit transfers with the program
Red Ryder.

Yes, the Vax is indeed trying to store everything in one record!  Red Ryder's
Kermit module is a piece of crap.   It doesn't do the proper CR -> CR/LF
mapping that is needed during Kermit text file transfers.  Since the Vax 
ever sees a CR/LF pair (Kermit's end of record marker) it never puts an end
of record in the file!  It is NOT the VMS Kermit's fault.  It is NOT VMS's
fault. It is Red Ryder's fault!

As I have said before:  GET MAC KERMIT!!!!!!
