I've added 8 bit quoting to the KERMIT routine you provided along with
some other mods to DBW  et al code.  I was gonna send him all of my mods
but if you're planning the above changes I'll hold off on sending him my
kermit routine (as long as you'll add 8 bit quoting).  Yes, it'll be
useful cause I've added parity and wordsize selections.

I dunno about Dave but *I'd* like Send Break and Change Dir.  Hang Up I
don't really care about but I've got a smart modem.  If you're adding Send
Break, don't forget to allow the setting of the break time--preferable in
both init and script files.
