I am e-mailing with regard to your message to comp.sys.mac
about ftp-ing the latest Kermit files from cu20b. I copied
the files ker:xkm936{.hqx.4, .mcw.1, .dsk.1, .hlp.2} the latter 2,
being ordinary text files seem to be OK, but I seem to be having
problem with the .hqx and .mcw files. As I understood the
BinHex 4.0 format the file should begin and end with a colon. But
the .hqx and .mcw files seem to terminate prematurely and
consequently cause and end-of-file error in BinHex 4.0. I tried
ftp-ing again but the error still persists.
Am I doing something wrong or are the files corrupted ?
I would very much appreciate any help. If possible could you e-
mail me the correct files.
Also I understand from the .upd file at the Stanford archives that
0.8(34) supported mouse-activated cursor positioning. This
doesn't seem to mentioned in the documentation; could please tell
if this is correct and how it works.
Many thanks,
John Pearce.
