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. -Richard Hartman max.hartman@ames-vmsb ------
