I have the source for the original kermit (Columbia distribution), and there's
a 1030 module with which you can replace the 850 module.  I don't have a 1030,
so I don't know whether it works.  It's written in Action!, so you have to have
the cartridge to run it!  If you want it, let me know.
Note: it's available from Columbia over BITNET.
