Please _D_O_N_'_T_ post CKermit sources ! ! !

The sources for Amiga Kermit (CKermit) are HUGE!!! And the uuencoded
binary is 160+kbytes itself.

You'll get *lots and lots* of complaints from backbone - and other - sites
if you try to pass around *that* much stuff!!  I sent Randy a disk and got
it back within a week! And it Works!

By the way, Randy notes that the executable he sends is unpacked from the 
.boo file and that he has yet to get the sources to compile using Lattice
C - I think version 3.03 but I'm not sure. So the sources may or may not
be of any use to you, anyway.
