  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.)

Huh?  I thought that Kermit was specifically designed to tranmsit
binary files over ASCII lines.  The CP/M version that I have does this
just fine.

  If *all* else fails, I also have the source to KERMIT in C buried around here
  somewhere.

The source for CP/M in 8080 assembly language, as well as HEX .COM
file, is available from Columbia.
