In response to David Young's recent posting about his adventures with
kermit, I have this to say:

   I have successfully transferred an Atari binary file to my VAX and
back, using the SET FILE BINARY (on the VAX) and the menu selection of
file type on the Atari.  I do not know if eigth-bit quoting is actually
working or not, but this seems to be an indication.  I have yet to dig
into the code, which would (of course) be the final arbiter on this
question.  For the record, I do not go through a TAC to get to my VAX.

   On the other hand, I DO have a problem that David has not had (and
that he has tried to help me solve):  when using a mainframe kermit
in server mode, I cannot recieve files with names that have the full
8-character length. Seven character names, and below, are fine.  The
extension does not seem to matter.  But on my VAX (running VMS) and
on David's host (running TOPS-20) the problem is consistant.  Oh well,
you win one, you lose one.
