<STRONG>Command:</STRONG> <STRONG>kermit</STRONG> <STRONG>-</STRONG> <STRONG>transfer</STRONG> <STRONG>a</STRONG> <STRONG>file</STRONG> <STRONG>using</STRONG> <STRONG>the</STRONG> <STRONG>kermit</STRONG> <STRONG>protocol</STRONG>
|
||||
<STRONG>Syntax:</STRONG> <STRONG>kermit</STRONG>
|
||||
<STRONG>Flags:</STRONG> (many)
|
||||
<STRONG>Example:</STRONG> kermit # Start kermit
|
||||
|
||||
This is a slightly lobotomized <EM>kermit</EM>. The help command, the
|
||||
script facility, and the automatic dial support have been removed. The ?
|
||||
and ESC commands still work, so there is still reasonable built-in help.
|
||||
The only V7 <EM>kermit</EM> feature that does not work is the ability to see
|
||||
whether there are input characters waiting. This means that you will
|
||||
not be able to ask for status during a file transfer (though this is not
|
||||
critical, because <EM>kermit</EM> prints a dot every so often and other special
|
||||
characters whenever there is an error or timeout).
|
||||
|
||||
Start <EM>kermit</EM>, and then type the following to open a 2400 baud
|
||||
session, for example:
|
||||
|
||||
<STRONG>set</STRONG> <STRONG>line</STRONG> <STRONG>/dev/tty1</STRONG>
|
||||
<STRONG>set</STRONG> <STRONG>speed</STRONG> <STRONG>2400</STRONG>
|
||||
<STRONG>connect</STRONG>
|
||||
|
||||
(It is more convenient if you put these commands in .<EM>kermrc</EM> in your home
|
||||
directory, so that they get done automatically whenever you run <EM>kermit</EM>.)
|
||||
This will connect you to the modem or whatever on the serial port. Now
|
||||
log into the other system.
|
||||
|
||||
When you want to transfer files, run <EM>kermit</EM> on the other system.
|
||||
To it, type
|
||||
|
||||
<STRONG>server</STRONG>
|
||||
|
||||
This puts its <EM>kermit</EM> into a sort of 'slave mode' where it expects
|
||||
commands from the <EM>kermit</EM> running on your MINIX system. Now come back to
|
||||
the command level on MINIX <EM>kermit</EM>, by typing the escape character
|
||||
followed by <EM>c</EM>. (<EM>Kermit</EM> will tell you the current escape character when
|
||||
you do the connect command.) At this point you can issue various
|
||||
commands. Your <EM>kermit</EM> will coordinate things with <EM>kermit</EM> on the other
|
||||
machine so that you only have to type commands at one end. Common
|
||||
commands are
|
||||
|
||||
<STRONG>get</STRONG> <EM>filename</EM>
|
||||
<STRONG>put</STRONG> <EM>filename</EM>
|
||||
<STRONG>remote</STRONG> <EM>dir</EM>
|
||||
|
||||
Filenames can include wildcards. By default, <EM>kermit</EM> works in a system-
|
||||
independent, text mode. (In effect it assumes that the whole world is
|
||||
MS-DOS and converts end of line and file names accordingly.) To send
|
||||
binary files, you will want to type
|
||||
|
||||
<STRONG>set</STRONG> <STRONG>file</STRONG> <STRONG>type</STRONG> <STRONG>bin</STRONG>
|
||||
|
||||
on both ends before starting any transfers. This disables CR LF to
|
||||
newline conversion. If both of your systems are some flavor of UNIX,
|
||||
you might as well put this in .<EM>kermrc</EM> on both ends and run in binary
|
||||
mode all the time. Also, if both systems are UNIX it is recommended
|
||||
that you use
|
||||
|
||||
<STRONG>set</STRONG> <STRONG>file</STRONG> <STRONG>name</STRONG> <STRONG>lit</STRONG>
|
||||
|
||||
on both ends. This causes it to keep file names unchanged, rather than
|
||||
mapping to legal MS-DOS names.
|
||||
|
||||
Here is a typical .<EM>kermrc</EM> for use on MINIX:
|
||||
|
||||
<STRONG>set</STRONG> <STRONG>line</STRONG> <STRONG>/dev/tty1</STRONG>
|
||||
<STRONG>set</STRONG> <STRONG>speed</STRONG> <STRONG>1200</STRONG>
|
||||
<STRONG>set</STRONG> <STRONG>esc</STRONG> <STRONG>29</STRONG>
|
||||
<STRONG>set</STRONG> <STRONG>file</STRONG> <STRONG>type</STRONG> <STRONG>bin</STRONG>
|
||||
<STRONG>set</STRONG> <STRONG>file</STRONG> <STRONG>name</STRONG> <STRONG>lit</STRONG>
|
||||
<STRONG>set</STRONG> <STRONG>retry</STRONG> <STRONG>90</STRONG>
|
||||
<STRONG>set</STRONG> <STRONG>prompt</STRONG> <STRONG>MINIX</STRONG> <STRONG>kermit></STRONG>
|
||||
<STRONG>connect</STRONG>
|
||||
|
||||
On the other end of the line, for example, the host at your local
|
||||
computer center to which you want to transfer files, a typical profile
|
||||
might be:
|
||||
|
||||
<STRONG>set</STRONG> <STRONG>rec</STRONG> <STRONG>packet</STRONG> <STRONG>1000</STRONG>
|
||||
<STRONG>set</STRONG> <STRONG>fil</STRONG> <STRONG>name</STRONG> <STRONG>lit</STRONG>
|
||||
<STRONG>set</STRONG> <STRONG>fil</STRONG> <STRONG>type</STRONG> <STRONG>bin</STRONG>
|
||||
<STRONG>server</STRONG>
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
<EM>Kermit</EM> has many other options and features. For a pleasant and
|
||||
highly readable description of it, see the following book:

Over 400 versions of <EM>kermit</EM> are available, so it is likely there is one
|
||||
for any computer your MINIX system might want to talk to. Columbia
|
||||
University also publishes a newsletter about <EM>kermit</EM> that can be
|
||||
requested from the above address.
