Joe (craparotta%kyoa.DEC@decwrl.dec.com) suggested a technique which
provided me with the result that I was looking for.  His suggestion
was to BRUN KERMIT382, then issue the Kermit command SET PREFIX
/MYVOL/KERMIT.3.82.  Next issue the Kermit command EXIT to get back
to the APPLESOFT prompt and then do a BSAVE KERMIT382,A$1000,L$6F00.
I tried this and it works great!  Now each time I execute Kermit, the
prefix is set to point to the subdirectory that contains the
KERMIT.INIT and KERMIT.MODEM files.

Ted Medin was also kind enough to respond.  He suggested that I move
the KERMIT.INIT and KERMIT.MODEM files to the root directory.  This
would also have worked, but I prefer the other solution.

I thank both gentlemen for their prompt and helpful responses.
