The major changes include: - Improved performance on Apple II's with interrupt-driven communications (most systems //e+ or later). - A new "set timing" command, to allow adjustment to internal clocks of different speeds. - A new "type" command for displaying local files without leaving Kermit. - The "help" command now displays an external help file that you can change without rebuilding the program itself. - An escaping mechanism for sending special characters to the modem. - A revised manual. The new files are in app*.* in the various Kermit Distribution areas, and can be ordered on Kermit Tape A. Many thanks to Ted for his continued efforts in developing and supporting this program.
