We also use Kermit-10 on the 2065 to provide file
transfer
capabilities, since we do not have TCP/IP for Tops-10 (nor
a Tops-10 driver for the Stanford MEIS[1] even if we did).
I forgot to mention: When we were ready to put the 2065 on the
'Net back in 2005, I discovered a bug in Kermit-10, which had
been partially patched in the Macro-10 output of the Bliss-10
compiler[1] but never really fixed. I got in touch with my
long-time net.acquaintance Frank, who in turn put me in touch
with the original author of Kermit-10. The latter gentleman was
tickled to log in on the 2065 and repair the program properly!
