Most versions of Kermit for the Apple // series do work under ProDOS.  The only
limitation so far has been the need to build the program under DOS 3.3.  Once
built under DOS 3.3, the executable can be copied to ProDOS and run.

My understanding of the newest release of Kermit (v3.86) will permit building
under ProDOS.  If just building the executable is your problem, this may be
you solution.

Has anybody seen, or is using Kermit 3.86.  Can we get the build files posted
to comp.binaries.apple2
