There is a Turbo-Pascal version of Kermit floating around for the
CP/M-80 systems.  For those who might have tried it on an Ampro Little
Board and been unsuccessful in getting it to come up, try changing the
assignment of the variable "port" from:
        port := 2               to:     port := 0
  The Turbo version uses some fancy switching of the IOBYTE to convert
from the console to the RDR/PUN device.  In the Ampro, the normal hard-
wired definition for RDR/PUN is Serial Port B which is the standard TTY:
device.  The Columbia version evidentally uses UR1:/UP1: which becomes
the BAT: console device when switched in for status reads to the console
device.
   With this one equate fixed (in the main K.PAS module), terminal oper-
ation with the "connect" command works.  There are a couple of other
assignments that need to be fixed in the port configuration section, but
I haven't sorted it out yet.
   If someone has used this program to transfer binary files to/from a
BBN C-70 Unix machine, I would appreciate any info on settings in both
programs, since I still can't get that to work yet.
