Gianone Subject: Announcing NCR 9800 Kermit Keywords: NCR 9800 Kermit This is to announce a Kermit program for the NCR 9800-4 computer, contributed by Paul E. Gladden of NCR Corporation, San Diego, CA, USA, for the NCR VE4.0 operating system. There are separate variations for the IVS and MCS environments. Both products are written in the C language, based on C-Kermit 4E with features added or deleted depending on VRX system capabilities, and NCR selected product content. Module names reflect the same usage as in C-Kermit 4E. New modules have a short explanation. IVS-Kermit and MCS-Kermit share common source code. MCS-Kermit has two additional files to interface to the MCS telecommunications facility. MCS modules are labeled MCS ONLY. A large number of files are included. These have been installed in the "D" area of Kermit Distribution. The file ncrker.doc contains user documentation and installation instructions. The file ncrker.jar is a "join" archive containing the numerous source files, which contains instructions at the top on how to break it apart. Many thanks to Paul for submitting this new Kermit implementation.
