I thought it might be the new way Ah, there's the rub. Unlike most commware, Kermit actually USES Applesoft ROM routines for I/O (which is why your problem appears when you try file transfer). Whyever don't you get your ROM's from Apple instead of trying to pirate what is really a pretty cheap upgrade. OR just leave the old ROM chips in (I'm using a 65C02 but haven't upgraded the ROM's, I've found only a few pieces of software that won't work; most things either work on an unenhanced //e or only need the 65C02 but not the ROMs). If your going to violate copyright in public, don't expect a lot of sympathy. >interrupts are handled in the 65c02, but all other telecom programs I have work >fine with the upgrade.)

I tried hitting a LOT of bacspaces at the prompt with both the ProDOS and DOS 3.3 versions. All I get is a "beep" (^G). By the "new" kermit, I take it you mean 3.83. --------------------- Disclaimer: The "look and feel" of this message is exclusively MINE!
