It allows the transfer of  filesF over  terminal lines from a remote Kermit program to the local Kermit	 program.F Kermit-32 can be run from SYS$SYSTEM:.  It will then prompt for input from SYS$COMMAND:.F Kermit-32 can be run in either local  or  remote  modes.   In  remoteF mode,  transfers  take  place  over  the  controlling  terminal line.F Ususally, Kermit-32 is used in remote mode  as  a  "server",  meaningF that  it  will accept commands from the other Kermit.  In local mode,F Kermit-32 will perform transfers over a terminal line other than  theF controlling  terminal.  In local mode, Kermit-32 is capable of givingF commands to a "server" Kermit.  Note that in order to  use  Kermit-32F in  local  mode, the protection code for the terminal to be used must; allow the user access.  This is set by the system manager.F When Kermit-32 starts up, it will determine a default  terminal  lineF to  be  used  for  file  transfers  (and  the CONNECT command) by theF following process.  If there  is  a  logical  name  "KER$COMM"  whichF translates  to a terminal name, the default transfer terminal will beF that terminal.  Otherwise, Kermit  checks  "SYS$INPUT",  "SYS$OUTPUT"F and   "SYS$COMMAND",  (in  that  order),  and  the  first  one  whichF translates to a terminal name is used as the  default.   If  none  ofF these  are terminals, Kermit will use the terminal which controls theF job which  owns  the  process.   If  the  process  does  not  have  aF controlling  terminal,  or  if the terminal which was found cannot beF allocated, Kermit will not have a default terminal, and the SET  LINEF TTcn:   command  must  be  used before any commands which require theF transfer terminal (SEND, GET, etc.).  Kermit will type out a  message= indicating the default transfer terminal when it is started.1 BYEF This command will cause Kermit-32 (when in local mode)  to  tell  theF other  Kermit  (which  should  be in server mode) to exit from KermitF and, if applicable, terminate  its  job  (or  process,  etc.).   WhenF Kermit-32  receives  the  acknowledgement that this is being done, it will exit to VMS.           Kermit-32>BYE	1 CONNECTF The CONNECT command will  allow  you  to  connect  in  as  a  virtualF terminal over the line that was specified by the SET LINE command, orF to the terminal line specified in the  command.   The  terminal  lineF must  be  one  which  is accessible to the users process.  This meansF that the applicable protection code for the terminal must  have  beenF set  to allow your process to access it (done by the system manager).F If a session log file was previously specified, a new version of  theF file  will  be created, and all typeout logged in the file.  The fileF will  be  closed  when  the  command  is  completed  (by  use  of  anF escape-character "C" command).  The format of the CONNECT command is:           Kermit-32>CONNECT or"           Kermit-32>CONNECT TTcn:3 where TTcn:  is the terminal line name to be used.1 EXITF The EXIT command will cause Kermit to return to command level.   ThisF command  is the same as the QUIT command.  An example of this command is:           Kermit-32>EXIT1 FINISHF This command will cause Kermit-32 (when in local mode)  to  tell  theF other  Kermit  (which  should be in server mode) to exit from Kermit.F After  receiving  the  acknowledgement  that  this  is  being   done,+ Kermit-32 will prompt for another command.           Kermit-32>FINISH1 GETF The GET command is used to have a local Kermit-32 request a file fromF the  remote  Kermit.   Kermit-32  must  be  running as a local KermitF (i.e., a SET LINE command must have been done).  Kermit-32 will  thenF request  the  other  Kermit (which must be running in server mode) toF transfer the specified file (or set of files) to Kermit-32.  The fileF specification must be in the format of the system on which the server2 Kermit is running.  The format of the command is:+           Kermit-32>GET file-specificationF Where "file-specification" is any valid  file  specification  on  the. system on which the server Kermit is running.1 LOCALF This command allows the user of Kermit-32 to perform various  actionsF on  the  user's  system.   These  commands  provide  for  listing theF contents of a directory, deleting files, typing files, displaying theF amount of disk space used, etc.  Many of these commands are performedF by spawning a subprocess to execute the  corresponding  DCL  command;F therefore,  the  standard  parameters and qualifiers which DCL allows
 may be used.,           Kermit-32>LOCAL keyword argumentsF Where keyword is the name of  the  command,  and  arguments  are  the$ optional arguments for the command.2 COPYF This causes Kermit-32 to make a copy of  the  specified  file.   ThisF command  uses  the  standard DCL COPY command.  Any options valid for  DCL's COPY command may be used..           Kermit-32>LOCAL COPY old-local-file$           New file:  new-local-fileF Where 'old-local-file' is the name of the file you wish to copy,  and+ 'new-local-file' is the name for the copy.2 CWDF This command (short for "Change Working Directory") causes  Kermit-32F to   the  default  directory  that  will  be  used  for  files  whoseF specification does not include the directory  information.   This  isF similar to the DCL SET DEFAULT command.  If no device or directory isF given, the default device and directory is set back to that which was' being used when Kermit-32 was started.<           Kermit-32>LOCAL CWD local-directory-specification or           Kermit-32>LOCAL CWDF Where 'local-directory-specification' is the device and/or  directoryF portion of a standard VMS file specification.  It may include logical names, but not wildcards.2 DELETEF This causes Kermit-32 to delete the specified file(s).  This uses the standard DCL DELETE command.4           Kermit-32>LOCAL DELETE file-specification@ Where file-specification is a valid VAX/VMS file specification.2 DIRECTORYF This causes Kermit-32 to display a directory listing.  This uses  the  standard DCL DIRECTORY command.7           Kermit-32>LOCAL DIRECTORY file-specificationF Where the  file-specification  is  an  optional  valid  VAX/VMS  file specification.2 DISK_USAGEF This causes Kermit-32 to display the amount of disk  space  used  andF available  for  the  given  UIC (or the user's UIC if none is given)./ This uses the standard DCL SHOW QUOTA command.)           Kermit-32>LOCAL DISK_USAGE uic3 Where uic is an optional UIC (in square brackets).2 HELPF This causes Kermit-32 to display the help message which it  sends  asF the  reply  when  it receives a "REMOTE HELP" command in server mode.? This describes the REMOTE commands which Kermit-32 implements.           Kermit-32>LOCAL HELP2 HOSTF This command requests Kermit-32 to perform the specified  command  asF if  it  were  typed  by  the  user on a terminal.  Any results of theF command will be printed on  the  user's  terminal.   Note  that  thisF should only be used for commands which will not require any more userF input, since there will be no way for the user to interact  with  theF subprocess to supply more input.  This works by spawning a subprocess: (much like the DCL SPAWN command) to perform the command.'           Kermit-32>LOCAL HOST command* Where 'command' is any valid DCL command.2 RENAMEF This command causes Kermit-32 to change the name  on  a  file.   This& uses the standard DCL RENAME command.0           Kermit-32>LOCAL RENAME old-local-file$           New file:  New-local-fileF Where 'old-local-file' is the name of the file  to  be  renamed,  and/ 'new-local-file' is the new name for the file.2 SEND_MESSAGEF This command causes Kermit-32 to send a short (one line)  message  toF the  given  terminal.   Because this uses the DCL REPLY command, OPER priveleges are needed.5           Kermit-32>LOCAL SEND_MESSAGE terminal-name!           Message:  message-textF Where  'terminal-name'  is  a  valid  name  for   a   terminal,   and* 'message-text' is the message to be sent.2 TYPEF This causes  Kermit-32  to  display  the  specified  file(s)  on  the
 terminal.2           Kermit-32>LOCAL TYPE file-specification@ Where file-specification is a valid VAX/VMS file specification.2 WHO3 This displays the output of a SHOW SYSTEM command.           Kermit-32>LOCAL WHO1 LOGF The LOG command allows the user to specify the file names to be  usedF for  the  various  log  files  Kermit  is capable of creating.  A LOGF command without a file specification will cause no log file  of  that type to be created.)           Kermit-32>LOG keyword filespecF Where keyword is DEBUG, SESSION, or TRANSACTION, and filespec is  theF file  specification to use for that type of log file.  If filespec is/ not present, that type of logging is disabled.2 DEBUGF The LOG DEBUG command sets the file specification to be used for  theF debugging  log file.  This file will be used for the debugging outputF produced when a SET DEBUG ON command is done.  A new version  of  theF file is created each time a transfer command is performed, and closed- upon the completion of the transfer command.'           Kermit-32>LOG DEBUG filespecF Where filespec is the file specification to use for the debugging logD file.  If the filespec is null, the debugging log file is disabled.	2 SESSIONF The LOG SESSION command sets the file name to be used for a log  fileF of  a  "CONNECT" session.  A new version of this file is created eachF time the CONNECT command is used, and closed when the CONNECT commandF finishes  (as  a  result of the escape command to close the session).F All output to the controlling terminal will be logged in the  session
 log file.)           Kermit-32>LOG SESSION filespecF Where filespec is the file specification to use for the  session  logB file.  If the filespec is null, the session log file is disabled.
2 TRANSACTIONF The LOG TRANSACTION command sets the name of the file to be used as aF transaction  log  file.   A  new version of this file is created eachF time  a  transfer  command  is  given  (SEND,  GET,  SERVER,   etc.).F Information about the transfer is logged in this file.  This includes; the names of the files being transferred, any errors, etc.-           Kermit-32>LOG TRANSACTION filespecF Where filespec is the file specification to use for  the  transactionF log  file.   If  the  filespec  is  null, the transaction log file is
 disabled.1 LOGOUTF This command will cause Kermit-32 (when in local mode)  to  tell  theF other  Kermit  (which  should  be in server mode) to exit from KermitF and, if applicable, terminate  its  job  (or  process,  etc.).   WhenF Kermit-32  receives  the  acknowledgement that this is being done, it! will prompt for another command.           Kermit-32>LOGOUT1 QUITF This command will cause Kermit to return to command level.   This  is the same as the EXIT command.           Kermit-32>QUIT	1 RECEIVEF The RECEIVE command is used to put Kermit-32 into remote mode waitingF for  a  single file transfer transaction.  This is most useful if theF other Kermit does not support local  server  commands.   If  no  fileF specification   is   given,   Kermit-32   will   use   whatever  fileF specification is supplied by the other Kermit  (suitably  altered  toF conform  to  VMS  standards).   If  a  file  specification  is given,F Kermit-32 will use that file specification instead of  that  suppliedF by  the  other Kermit.  This is most useful when the file name on theF other system is such that it does  not  map  well  into  a  VMS  fileF specification.   Note  that  if  the other Kermit sends more than oneF file, the same name will be used for all of them.  Only  the  versionF numbers   will  be  different.   Therefore,  it  is  best  to  use  aF file-specification on this command only when  transferring  a  single% file.  The format of the command is:           Kermit-32>RECEIVE or/           Kermit-32>RECEIVE file-specification@ Where "file-specification" is any valid VMS file specification.1 REMOTEF This command allows the user of Kermit-32 (in  local  mode)  to  giveF various  commands to the other Kermit (which must be in server mode).F These commands provide for  listing  the  contents  of  a  directory,F deleting  files,  typing  files,  displaying the amount of disk spaceF used, etc.  Note that not all server Kermits  support  all  commands,F but  all  server  Kermits  should  repsond  with a message saying the6 command is not implemented if it does not support it.-           Kermit-32>REMOTE keyword argumentsF Where keyword is the name of  the  command,  and  arguments  are  the$ optional arguments for the command.2 COPYF This causes Kermit-32 to request that the server Kermit make  a  copyF of  the  specified file.  Both the old and new files are files on theF server's system - no file transfer  between  systems  is  done.   TheF server  Kermit  should  respond  with some indication that either theF file was successfully copied, or with an error  message.   Note  thatF some  Kermit's  will allow wild-carded copies, while others will only. allow a single file to be copied per command.0           Kermit-32>REMOTE COPY old-remote-file%           New file:  new-remote-fileF Where 'old-remote-file' is the name of the file you wish to copy, and, 'new-remote-file' is the name for the copy.2 CWDF This command (short for "Change Working Directory") causes  Kermit-32F to request that the server Kermit change the default directory (path,F device, etc.) that will be used for files  whose  specification  doesF not  include  the directory information.  For some systems a passwordF can be supplied which will allow access to the new directory.   SinceF Kermit-32 can not know whether the server Kermit requires a password,F it will always ask for one.  If no  directory  is  specified  in  theF command, the server Kermit will set the default directory back to theF users default.  This may be either the directory which is the defaultF when a job created, or the default directory which was in effect whenF the server Kermit was started.  The server Kermit should respond withF a  message  which  indicates where the new default directory has been set, or with an error message.>           Kermit-32>REMOTE CWD remote-directory-specification3           Password:  password for remote directory or           Kermit-32>REMOTE CWDF Where  'remote-directory-specification'  is   a   string   which   isF acceptable  as  a  directory  indication  for the server system.  TheF password is any string which is required as a password for access  to7 the given directory.  The password will not be echoed.2 DELETEF This causes Kermit-32 to request the  server  Kermit  to  delete  theF specified  file  (or  files  if  the server Kermit supports wild-cardF deletes).  The server Kermit should respond with a message indicating. whether the file (or files) has been deleted.5           Kermit-32>REMOTE DELETE file-specificationF Where file-specification is a valid file specification for the remote Kermit's system.2 DIRECTORYF This causes Kermit-32 to request a directory listing from the  serverF Kermit.  The directory listing will be printed on the users terminal.> The format of the listing is determined by the server Kermit.8           Kermit-32>REMOTE DIRECTORY file-specificationF Where the file-specification is an optional valid file  specification for the server Kermits system.2 DISK_USAGEF This causes Kermit-32 to request the server Kermit to reply  with  anF indication  of  the  amount  of disk space used and available for the= given directory (or the default directory if none is given).>           Kermit-32>REMOTE DISK_USAGE directory-specificationF Where directory-specification is an optional directory  specification  for the server Kermit's system.2 EXITF This command is identical to the FINISH  command.   It  requests  theF server  Kermit  to  exit  to  its system command parser, allowing the) terminal to be used for normal commands.            Kermit-32>REMOTE EXIT2 HELPF This causes Kermit-32 to request the server Kermit to  reply  with  aF sort  summary  of  what  commands  it supports in server mode.  If anF argument is given, help on the  specific  topic  is  requested.   The< resulting help message will be typed on the users terminal.&           Kermit-32>REMOTE HELP topic or            Kermit-32>REMOTE HELPF Where topic is an option subject for more detailed help.  If no topic/ is given, a general help message is requested.2 HOSTF This command requests the server  Kermit  to  perform  the  specifiedF command  as  if it were typed by the user on a terminal.  Any resultsF of the command will be printed on the  user's  terminal.   Note  thatF this should only be used for commands which will not require any moreF user input, since there will be no way for the user to interact  with( the remote system to supply more input.(           Kermit-32>REMOTE HOST commandF Where 'command' is any valid command to be processed  by  the  remote! systems standard command parser.2 LOGINF This command allows  the  user  to  supply  the  server  Kermit  withF accounting  information.   The server Kermit may use this to validateF the users access to the system as well as for billing  purposes.   ItF may  also  use  this  information  to provide the user with access to files on its system.)           Kermit-32>REMOTE LOGIN user-id+           Account:  remote-accounting-info%           Password:  remote-passwordF Where  'user-id'  is  a  string  which  represents   a   valid   userF identification  on the remote system, 'remote-accounting-info' is anyF additional accounting information required by the remote system (suchF as  account  strings),  and 'remote-password' is the password for theF remote system which corresponds to the given user-id.   The  password will not be echoed.2 LOGOUTF This command is the same as the LOGOUT command.  It will request  the* server Kermit to exit and logout its job."           Kermit-32>REMOTE LOGOUT2 RENAMEF This command causes Kermit-32  to  request  that  the  server  KermitF change  the name on a file.  The server Kermit should respond with anF indication that the operation is completed successfully, or else withF an   error   message.    Some   Kermit's  may  allow  wild-card  fileF specifications to be used, and will repsond with a list of files  and new names.2           Kermit-32>REMOTE RENAME old-remote-file%           New file:  New-remote-fileF Where 'old-remote-file' is the name of the file to  be  renamed,  and0 'new-remote-file' is the new name for the file.2 SEND_MESSAGEF This command requests the server Kermit to send a  short  (one  line)F message  to  the  given  destination.   Depending  on the system, theF destination may be a terminal, a user name, a mailbox  name  or  someF other  destination address.  The server Kermit should respond with an" indication of success or failure.<           Kermit-32>REMOTE SEND_MESSAGE destination-address!           Message:  message-textF Where 'destination-address' is a valid destination for  the  server's6 system, and 'message-text' is the message to be sent.2 STATUSF This requests the status of the server  Kermit.   The  server  Kermit/ will reply with some indication of its status."           Kermit-32>REMOTE STATUS2 TYPEF This causes Kermit-32 to request the server Kermit  to  transmit  theF specified  file  (or  files if the server supports wildcards) so that0 the file(s) can be typed on the users terminal.3           Kermit-32>REMOTE TYPE file-specificationF Where file-specification is a valid file specification for the server Kermit's system.2 WHOF This requests the server Kermit to display a list  of  users  of  itsF system,  along  with other information about the users and/or system.F A specific user-id may be supplied, which may result in more detailedF information about the particular user.  It is also possible to supplyF options for use by the server Kermit in determining the format, etc., of the resulting list.'           Kermit-32>REMOTE WHO user-id!           Options:  options-listF Where 'user-id' is an optional string representing a  specific  user,F and  'options-list'  is  an  optional list of formatting or selection	 options.1 SENDF The SEND command will allow you  to  send  a  file(s)  to  the  otherF Kermit.   The SEND command will allow file wild card processing as isF found in VMS.  If Kermit-32 is running in remote mode, the file  willF be  sent on the controlling terminal line after waiting the number ofF seconds specified by the SET DELAY command.  This gives the user timeF to  escape  back to the other Kermit and issue a receive command.  IfF Kermit-32 is running in local mode, the file will be sent immediately8 on the terminal line specified by the SET LINE command. The command format is:,           Kermit-32>SEND file-specificationE Where "file-specification" is any normal VAX/VMS file specification.1 SERVERF This command will cause Kermit-32 to enter server  mode.   The  otherF Kermit  can  then  issue  server  commands  to send and receive filesF without having  to  give  SEND  or  RECEIVE  commands  to  Kermit-32.F Kermit-32  may  be  put  into  SERVER  mode while running as either aF remote Kermit (transmitting over the controlling terminal  line),  orF as  a  local  Kermit (transmitting over a terminal specified by a SETF LINE command).  Note that in order to correctly receive binary  filesF while  in SERVER mode, a SET FILE TYPE BINARY must be done first.  AtF this time there is no way  for  Kermit-32  to  determine  whether  an" incoming file is ASCII or binary. The format of the command is:           Kermit-32>SERVER1 SET= The SET command is used to set various parameters in Kermit.2 BLOCK_CHECK_TYPEF The SET BLOCK_CHECK_TYPE command is used to  determine  the  type  ofF block  check  sequence  which  will be used during transmission.  TheF block check sequence is used to detect  transmission  errors.   ThereF are  three  types  of  block  check  available.  These are the singleF character checksum (default), the two  character  checksum,  and  theF three character CRC (cyclic redundancy check).  This command does notF ensure that the desired type of block check will be used, since  bothF Kermit's involved in the transfer must agree on the block check type.F Kermit-32 will request that the type  of  block  check  set  by  thisF command be used for a transfer.  If the other Kermit has also had theF same block check type requested, then the desired  block  check  typeF will be used.  Otherwise, the single character checksum will be used.3 (See Kermit protocol manual for more information.)1           Kermit-32>SET BLOCK_CHECK_TYPE keyword Where keyword is one of:3 1.  1_CHARACTER_CHECKSUM or ONE_CHARACTER_CHECKSUM3 2.  2_CHARACTER_CHECKSUM or TWO_CHARACTER_CHECKSUM7 3.  3_CHARACTER_CRC_CCITT or THREE_CHARACTER_CRC_CCITT2 DEBUGGINGF The SET DEBUGGING command is used to set the debug type  out  on  theF user's  terminal.   The command will accept either the keywords ON orF OFF.  Kermit-32 can only do debugging type  out  when  running  as  aF local  Kermit (SET LINE command done).  This is because the debuggingF type out would interfere with the file transfer if it  were  sent  to. the controlling terminal line in remote mode.(           Kermit-32>SET DEBUGGING state% Where state is either 'ON' or 'OFF'.2 DELAYF The DELAY parameter is the number of seconds to wait  before  sendingF data  after  a SEND command is given.  This is used when Kermit-32 isF running in remote mode to allow the user time to escape back  to  the) other Kermit and give a RECEIVE command.0           Kermit-32>SET DELAY number-of-secondsF Where number of seconds is the (decimal) number  of  second  to  wait before sending data.2 ESCAPEF This  command  will  set  the  escape  character  for   the   CONNECTF processing.   The  command will take the octal value of the characterF to use as the escape character.  This is the character which is  usedF to  "escape"  back  to Kermit-32 after using the CONNECT command.  ItF defaults to ] (octal 35).  It is usually a  good  idea  to  set  thisF character  to  something which is not used (or at least not used very< much) on the system being to which Kermit-32 is CONNECTing.5           Kermit-32>SET ESCAPE octal-character-valueF Where octal-character-value is the ASCII value of  the  character  to( use as the escape character (in octal).2 FILEF The SET FILE command allows setting of  parameters  relating  to  the8 file format and file naming conventions used by Kermit.3 NAMINGF This command sets the type of processing Kermit  should  do  on  fileF names  that  are being sent and received.  Kermit can either send theF complete file  specification  (including  device,  directories,  fileF name,  file  type and version number) or only the file name and type.F When receiving a file specification, Kermit can either attempt to useF it  as  a  VMS  file  specification  as  is,  or  first  perform someF substitutions  and  truncations  in  order  to  force  the   received5 specification to be just a valid file name and type.)           Kermit-32>SET FILE NAMING type4 FULLF This will cause Kermit  to  send  complete  file  specifications  and9 perform no translations on received file specifications.
4 NORMAL_FORMF This will cause Kermit to send only the file name and file type,  andF perform translations on received file specifications to force them to$ be only a valid file name and type.4 UNTRANSLATEDF This will cause Kermit to send only the file name and file type,  and9 perform no translations on received file specifications.3 TYPEF This command will set the file type that Kermit is receiving.  A fileF type  of  ASCII  should be used to receive text files which are to beF used as text files on the VMS system.  The file type BINARY should beF used for binary files, such as CP/M .COM files, which need to be keptE in a format that allows the file to be returned without any changes.'           Kermit-32>SET FILE TYPE type4 ASCII# File type ASCII is for text files.4 BINARYF File type BINARY is for non-text files.  Note that binary files whichF are  generated  on  a VMS system cannot be transferred to another VMSF system  without  losing  file  attributes.   This  means  that   (forF example),  an  .EXE file cannot be transmitted with Kermit-32.  (This; problem should be resolved in a future verison of Kermit).4 FIXEDF The FIXED file type will cause Kermit to create a file with 512  byteF fixed  length  records,  containing  only  the data received from theF other Kermit.  This format can be  used  for  transferring  VMS  .EXEF files  or  RSX-11/M (P/OS) .TSK files, or any other binary file which, is stored in 512 byte fixed length records.
2 IBM_MODEF The SET IBM_MODE command allows Kermit-32 to be put into a mode whichF will  allow  transfers to an IBM host.  This causes Kermit-32 to waitF for the IBM turnaround character (XON,  CTRL-Q)  before  sending  anyF characters to the other Kermit.  It also forces the parity type to be7 mark, and turns on local echo for the CONNECT command.)           Kermit-32>SET IBM_MODE keyword# Where keyword is either ON or OFF.2 INCOMPLETE_FILE_DISPOSITIONF The SET INCOMPLETE_FILE_DISPOSITION allows the user to determine whatF is  done  with  a  file  that  is  not  completely  received.  If theF disposition is KEEP, all file received will be kept, even if  only  aF portion  of the file is received.  If the disposition is DISCARD (theA default), files which are not completely received are discarded.<           Kermit-32>SET INCOMPLETE_FILE_DISPOSITION keyword) Where keyword is either DISCARD or KEEP.2 LINEF This will set the terminal line that you  are  using.   The  terminalF line  must  be  one  which  is accessible to the users process.  ThisF means that the applicable protection code for the terminal must  haveF been  set  to  allow  your  process  to access it (done by the system
 manager).%           Kermit-32>SET LINE device:, The device must be a terminal line (TTA0:).2 LOCAL_ECHOF The SET LOCAL_ECHO command specifies  whether  characters  should  beF echoed  locally  when CONNECTing to another system.  If LOCAL_ECHO isF set to ON, any  character  typed  on  the  terminal  will  be  echoedF immediately  to  the  terminal,  as  well  as being sent to the otherF system.  If LOCAL_ECHO is set to OFF (the  default),  the  charactersF typed  on the terminal are only sent to the other system (which would% normally be echoing the characters).+           Kermit-32>SET LOCAL_ECHO keyword# Where keyword is either ON or OFF.	2 MESSAGEF This command sets the  type  of  typeout  Kermit-32  will  do  duringF transfers   in   local   mode.   Kermit-32  can  type  out  the  fileF specification being transferred, the packet  numbers  being  sent  anF received,   both   or   neither.    The   default  is  to  type  file' specifications but not packet numbers.-           Kermit-32>SET MESSAGE type keywordF Where type is either FILE or PACKET, and keyword is either ON or OFF.2 PARITYF This command determines the type of parity to use on the transmissionF line.   Kermit  normally  uses characters which consist of eight dataF bits with no parity bit.  For systems  or  transmission  media  whichF require  a  specific parity type, Kermit can send characters as seven data bits plus a parity bit.'           Kermit-32>SET PARITY keyword Where keyword is one of:8 1.  NONE (default) - eight data bits and no parity bit.; 2.  MARK - seven data bits with the parity bit set to one.= 3.  SPACE - seven data bits with the parity bit set to zero.F 4.  EVEN - seven data bits with  the  parity  bit  set  to  make  the     overall parity even.F 5.  ODD - seven data bits with the parity bit set to make the overall     parity odd.2 PROMPTF This command sets the string to be used for the command  prompt.   If? no argument is given, the default prompt (Kermit-32>) is used./           Kermit-32>SET PROMPT new-prompt-text2 REPEAT_QUOTEF This command sets the character to be used as the  lead-in  characterF for  a  repeat sequence (a string of characters which represents someF number of characters which are repeated in the data).  Both  Kermit'sF must  support  repeat  compression  for  this  to  be in effect.  TheF character set by this command must be in the range  41  ("1")  to  76F (">")  or 140 ("`") to 176 ("~").  The character will only be used onF file which are being  transmitted  by  Kermit-32.   The  REPEAT_QUOTEF character  used for incoming files is decided on by the other Kermit.F The default value is 176 ("~").  A value of 40 (a space) will disable repeat compression.)           Kermit-32>SET REPEAT_QUOTE nnnF Where nnn is the ASCII value for the  repeat  quoting  character  (in octal).2 RETRYF This command sets the maximum number of times Kermit-32 should try toF send  specific  packet.   There  are  two retry maximums, one for theF initial connection packet (the "SEND-INIT"), the other for all  otherF packets.   The  default  value  for  initial  connections  is 5.  The+ default value for all other packets is 16.(           Kermit-32>SET RETRY keyword nF Where keyword is either INITIAL_CONNECTION  (for  initial  connectionF packet)  or  PACKET  (for  all  other  packets), and n is the decimal number of retries to attempt.	2 RECEIVEF It  is  possible  to  set  various  parameters  associated  with  theF receiving  of  the  data  from  the  remote Kermit.  SET RECEIVE will2 enable you to set the various receive parameters.3 PACKET_LENGTHF This will  set  the  receive  packet  length.   The  value  for  thisF parameter  must be between 10 and 96.

The default value is 80.1           Kermit-32>SET RECEIVE PACKET_LENGTH 60	3 PADDINGF This command will set the number of padding characters that  will  be3 sent to the other Kermit.  The default value is 0.*           Kermit-32>SET RECEIVE PADDING n< Where n is the decimal number of padding characters to use.	3 PADCHARF This parameter is the padding character that is sent  to  the  remoteF Kermit.   The  parameter must be an octal number in the range of 0 toF 37 or 177.  All other values are illegal.  The default value is 0 (an ASCII NUL).,           Kermit-32>SET RECEIVE PADCHAR nnnF Where nnn is the ASCII value of the character to be  used  as  a  pad character (in octal).3 START_OF_PACKETF This command will set the start of packet character for Kermit.   TheF start of packet character must be in the range of 0 to 36 octal.  TheF default value is 1 (ASCII SOH, CTRL-A).  This value  should  only  beF changed  if  absolutely  necessary.   It must be set the same in both
 Kermit's.2           Kermit-32>SET RECEIVE START_OF_PACKET 3	3 TIMEOUTF This will set the number of seconds before Kermit-32  will  time  outF the  attempt  to  receive a message.  This time out is used to handleF transmission errors which totally lose a message.  The default  value is 15 seconds.*           Kermit-32>SET RECEIVE TIMEOUT nE Where n is the number of seconds to wait for a message (in decimal).
3 END_OF_LINEF This will set the end of line  character  the  Kermit-32  expects  toF receive  from  the  remote  Kermit.   This  is  the  character  whichB terminates a packet.  The default value is 15 (ASCII CR, CTRL-M).0           Kermit-32>SET RECEIVE END_OF_LINE nnnF Where n is the ASCII value of the character to use  for  the  end  of line character (in octal).3 QUOTEF This will set the quoting character that  Kermit-32  will  expect  onF incoming  messages.   This  is  the  character  used to quote control2 characters.  The default value is 43 (ASCII " ").*           Kermit-32>SET RECEIVE QUOTE nnnB Where nnn is the ASCII value of the quoting character (in octal).3 EIGHT_BIT_QUOTEF This command sets the character to be used (when necessary) to  quoteF characters  which  have the eigth bit (parity bit) set.  This is usedF to transfer eight-bit bytes  on  a  transmission  medium  which  onlyF supports  seven  data  bits.   The  default  value  is 46 (ASCII "").D                                                                   _F Eigth-bit quoting will only be used if both Kermit's can  handle  it,F and  the  tranmission  medium  does  not  transmit  8  data  bits (as& indicated by the SET PARITY command).4           Kermit-32>SET RECEIVE EIGHT_BIT_QUOTE nnnF Where nnn is the ASCII value of the character (in octal) to  use  for1 quoting characters which have the eigth bit set.2 SENDF It  is  possible  to  set  various  parameters  associated  with  theF receiving  of  the data from the remote Kermit.  SET SEND will enableF you to set the various SEND parameters.  These parameters should  notF normally be set, since as part of the transfer initialization processF the two Kermit's exchange their RECEIVE parameters.   The  capabilityF of  setting  these  parameters  is  provided  so  that  the  transferF initialization can be completed even if the  default  parameters  are
 not correct.3 PACKET_LENGTHF This will set the SEND packet length.  The value for  this  parameterF must  be between 10 and 96.  Packet lengths outside of this range are# illegal.  The default value is 80..           Kermit-32>SET SEND PACKET_LENGTH 60	3 PADDINGF This command will set the number of padding characters that  will  be3 sent to the other Kermit.  The default value is 0.'           Kermit-32>SET SEND PADDING n< Where n is the decimal number of padding characters to use.	3 PADCHARF This parameter is the padding character that is sent  to  the  remoteF Kermit.   The  parameter must be an octal number in the range of 0 toF 37 or 177.  All other values are illegal.  The default value is 0 (an ASCII NUL).)           Kermit-32>SET SEND PADCHAR nnnF Where nnn is the ASCII value of the character to be  used  as  a  pad character (in octal).3 START_OF_PACKETF This command will set the start of packet character for Kermit.   TheF start of packet character must be in the range of 0 to 36 octal.  TheF default value is 1 (ASCII SOH, CTRL-A).  This value  should  only  beF changed  if  absolutely  necessary.   It must be set the same in both

This time out isF used to handle transmission errors which totally lose a message.  The default value is 15 seconds.'           Kermit-32>SET SEND TIMEOUT nE Where n is the number of seconds to wait for a message (in decimal).
3 END_OF_LINEF This will set the end of line character the Kermit-32  will  send  toF the  remote Kermit.  This is the character which terminates a packet., The default value is 15 (ASCII CR, CTRL-M).-           Kermit-32>SET SEND END_OF_LINE nnnF Where n is the ASCII value of the character to use  for  the  end  of line character (in octal).3 QUOTEF This will set the quoting character that  Kermit-32  will  expect  onF incoming  messages.   This  is  the  character  used to quote control2 characters.  The default value is 43 (ASCII " ").'           Kermit-32>SET SEND QUOTE nnnB Where nnn is the ASCII value of the quoting character (in octal).1 SHOWF The SHOW command will allow you to show the various  parameters  that are set with the SET command.2 ALLD The SHOW ALL command will cause all of the parameters to be listed.2 BLOCK_CHECK_TYPEF This command will  type  out  what  type  of  block  check  is  being requested.2 COMMUNICATIONSF This command will type out the communcations line related parameters.B This includes the terminal line being used, the parity type, etc.2 DEBUGGINGF The SHOW DEBUGGING command will print  the  state  of  the  debugging flag.2 DELAYF This will display the number of seconds delay that  Kermit  will  use- before attempting to send or receive a file.2 ESCAPEF This will display  the  current  escape  character  for  the  CONNECT processing.2 FILE_PARAMETERSF This will display the parameters related to files being  used.   This< includes the file type and the incomplete file disposition.2 FILE_TYPEF This will display the current file type that is used in  sending  the2 file to or receiving the from the micro computer.2 INCOMPLTE_FILE_DISPOSITIONB This will display the disposition of incompletely received files.2 LOCAL_ECHO5 This will display the status of the local echo flag.2 PACKETF This will display the current settings of the send and receive packet parameters.2 PARITY.
