"Super Kermit" (their word, not ours) is Kermit with sliding window packet
protocol.  MS-DOS Kermit 3.0 and C-Kermit 5A both support sliding windows.

The latest version of MS-DOS Kermit is 3.01.  The sources and all related
files are on watsun.cc.columbia.edu [128.59.39.2], available via ftp, login
as user anonymous (lowercase), any password.

For MS-DOS Kermit, cd kermit/b, mget mss*.* (source), msk*.* (documentation),
plus IBM-specific modules & files ms[guvxyz]ibm.*.

For C-Kermit 5A (not yet released), cd kermit/sw, mget ck*.*, then rename
ckuker.mak to makefile, read the instructions at the top, and make the desired
version.  Comments, reviews, welcome.
