The problems I was having with binscii are actually due to a flaw in
Proterm's Kermit transfer protocal.  Hence the fault is NOT binscii's
but it is serious.  I can upload files in binscii format, but unless
I am mistaken, no Laser user can download them?

Is this true?  I heard a report from one person who said he downloaded
hyperc to his Laser and got it working, what did you use for a modem
program?

If worst came to worst, a special Laser port driver could be written
for Kermit 3.85.

I'll await confirmation/denial.   Please post replies to the net, as
if support is strong, maybe the people at Central Point software
will relieve me of having to write a driver myself.

People keep asking me if Shell or Daemon are compatible with the IIc, IIe.
YES, I wrote them on my Laser 128.  I mean, what would be the challenge to
multitasking on a IIgs?  I'll start writing dedicated gs programs when
somebody sends me one in the mail.
