I have two questions about MS-Kermit.  I am using 3.10 on an IBM PC
compatible.  My first question is: on my system, the serial port which
kermit should connect to is Com3: and IRQ 5.  I can set port com3, but
how do I tell it to use IRQ5?

My second question is: I want kermit to do a particular thing whenever
you exit from it (in my case, output a string to the com port).  I am
not concerned with pushing to a dos shell, but whenever someone exits,
quits or byes, I want to execute and output command.  I can do this by
having kermit run from a bat file which runs kermit and then copies
the appropriate string to com3:, but I was wondering if there is a way
to do this without using a bat file?

Please reply via email as I don't read this group regularly, I will
summarize, if requested to do so, to comp.os.msdos.misc.

Many thanks
