just to cloud the issue further, i have found ( atleast with
PC/Intercomm) that you must use kermit -i (on the vax) and
kermit-image (on PC/IC) for binary files and kermit on both for text
files, if you mix them in any way the transfer will run but you will
end up with null files or the famed garbage.
