	MS Kermit has no explicit command to do text or binary transfers
because it needs none: the DOS file system does not distinguish the cases.
However, the host (the other end) may well distinguish and the host Kermit
may need to be told SET FILE TYPE BINARY at it's own command prompt.
P.S. You ought to upgrade from MSK 2.29 (early paleolithic) to 2.32/A, or
wait a month and get version 3.0 for much better performance and more
goodies.
