Complete sources for UNIX kermit are available by anonymous FTP
from watsun.cc.columbia.edu in the kermit/b/ directory.

I've modified Columbia's sources ever so slightly to work on the
NeXT, and a (compressed) executable is available for anonymous
FTP from sutro.sfsu.edu as pub/kermit.Z.  The (compressed)
PostScript version of the documentation is there too as
pub/ckuker.ps.Z.

There is an experimental kermit version available from
watsun.cc.columbia.edu in the kermit/test/ directory.  This one
supposedly "knows about NeXTs" so it should compile without too
much effort.
