Oh my.  Kermit is an assembly language program, correct?  The problem is that
you can't just copy a compiled/assembled program from DOS 3.3 over to ProDOS
since the file I/O routines are completely different.  It might look fine on
the screen and such, but that's where the similarity ends.

I believe you'll have to procure a ProDOS version of Kermit 3.85.
