|Hmmmm.  You may have trouble with this one.  I have KERMIT for the Kaypro
|and Xerox, but it is not "nice"; KERMIT has all kinds of problems transmitting
|any files with non-ASCII characters (such as found in unstripped WordStar,
|dBase, Supercalc, etc.)

I don't know what version of Kermit you have but Kermit has absolutely
no problems transmitting all 8 bits, since it has a quoting facility to
translate everything into a printable subset of ASCII. The host
operating system may have problems storing the files, but that is
another issue. I used to regularly transmit cross-compiled 8080
programs from Unix to my CP/M box with CP/M-80 Kermit.
