I haven't an explanation for the reference to "UUCP headers," but here
are the first 3 lines of KER383.1 as I've downloaded it (and passed it
to APPLE2-L & others).  It works fine if the file starts with the REM
statement (UUCP headers will just cause "SYNTAX ERROR" from APPLESOFT,
and the program also should install.

REM FIRST LINE OF KER383.1-- DO NOT REMOVE THESE REM LINES
REM SAVE AS "KER383.1" [AS RECEIVED, WITHOUT REMOVING UUCP HEADERS]
REM 27632 BYTES        *** INSTRUCTIONS ***     WARNING KER383.2 IS DELETED

Some lines above the end of KER383.2, there is a 3D0G.  It IS NECESSARY
that the line above it be blank (stored as two consecutive carriage
returns without an intervening pad character).  The section in question
(beginning 899 lines from the top) is:

C3A0D4CFA0D2C5D4D5D2CEDD0000D2C5D4D5D2CEDD0000FE038D047AADFF038DD8

3D0G
EXEC KER383.INSTALL
