Could someone out there please send me a version of Kermit for 
MACINTOSH that will allow the user to transfer binary files.

I have been trying to transfer a MacPaint file to VM/CMS using the
Kermit-version 0.8, but as far as I can tell there is no difference
between using the binary file mode and the text file mode.
When I look at the original MacPaint file with Fedit and
compare the first few lines they are definately not the same.

I may be that the receiving Kermit is not working right but It may
also be that the version I have for my Mac is not working right, or
for all I know they may both be wrong ...
