A new version of Kermit for the IBM PC is now available for testing.
The pertinent files are PCKERMIT.TST (source) and PCKERMFIX.TST (the
"FIX" file) on Columbia-20 in the KERMIT directory.  Please try it
out and let me know about any problems you encountered.  Here's a
list of changes for version 1.19:

 [19] (a) Change NOUT to print numbers in decimal instead of hex.  
      Routine is based on the one used in Generic Kermit.  Make a 
      cosmetic change where print filenames & remove extraneous screen 
      output.  (b) Change INCHR to allow timeouts when receiving data.  
      In SERINT, change the TEST to a CMP - flag not set as needed.
      Add Set timeout and fix SPAR to get timeout value from init packet.
      Add "nop" in NAK because the jump to ABORT is only 2 bytes.  

 [18] A NAK for the next packet is not the same as an ACK for the
      current packet if we're in Send-Init.  Also, account for
      wraparound when comparing packet numbers that are off by one.
