You  can get a copy of kermit 3.86 from shark.nosc.mil that is prodos and I do
believe is in binscii format and packed. I got it a while back and I didn't have
to put in on the DOS disk and then exec it. 

To get kermit 3.86 you have to login anonymous then "cd ker*mit." you must, 
include the * and the ., then get appaaanew for all the files that are needed
and the files that they have for the apple. The server also has the docs
for kermit in postscript and can be printed on any postscript preinter, our
school uses laserwriters so I just printed them out at school. If you have
a laserprinter at school you can print postscript by lp filename.
