I'm surprised no one caught me on this.  In recent postings I've described
experiments "proving" that Kermits 3.80, 3.84 and 3.85 strip linefeeds
automatically under DOS 3.3 but not under ProDOS.  Others have stated that
they got stripping under ProDOS.  Well, the answer seems to be pretty
simple now that I've bothered to read what was being shown on my screen.
The default ("as received") setup on v.3.84 is to have TRANSLATE CR<->CR,LF
On for send and Off for receive.  When I made a test file containing line
feeds after carriage returns and sent it to the Vax with Kermit 3.84, it
woulund up with DOUBLE line feeds.  When I brought it back, one of them was
stripped off, leaving the other still there.  So a few more experiments
are in order.
