Procomm, a ms-dos pd terminal package, gives you an estimate of how long your transfer is going to take when you're using kermit. At least it does so on the send; I never got the receive to work. What I would like is for an extra field to be added to the kermit status line giving the approximate time remaining for the transfer. That should be easy for sending, since you have the file size and the baud rate. Doing it for receiving, which is what I do most, would require getting the file size from the host computer. Can you do that with kermit? Rich Champeaux Clemson University
