Let me explain how I do downloading: I prepare a file with the word processor. that is easy and fast. then I use Kermit-MS and the QZ's Kermit to communicate with my PC with QZ. That means I have to transfer first my file from the PC to the CMS system in our Central Institute of Mathematics (using their Kermit-CMS). then I log in COM, go the exit menue, call QZ's Kermit, call server, connect to my Kermit-MS, and transfer one file after another. this done, I log in again in COM anbd start submitting the files from QZ, one after another. I may be very slow in doing this, but I can tell you, this takes quite a while, because with each file I have to submit it first to COM and then send it in. Does anybody know a faster way to do it?
