I'm using extensivly C-Kermit on my FreeBSD host
to connect to
various serial-line-only Systems. They also have a kermit executable
so I'm using kermit -s to send data from those systems to my FreeBSD
system and also getting files from my FreeBSD host to the other
systems is working fine.
I'm now looking for a way to get this "kermit file transfer"
functionality from Windows but had no luck so far.
Is there free-for-use Kermit alternative arround to be used for
Windows or an other Terminal Emulation which supportes Kermit
File Transfers "out of the box"?
Yes - I know Kermit 95, but this is not free.
It appears that (most of) the source code for Kermit 95 has been released now
but there is more work to done on it to make this useful.

Not so much of luck so far....
a)
http://www.kermitproject.org/k95sourcecode.html
lists 2 "projects" with windows binaries. The first one seems to work,
but when it comes to downloading files from the connected system, k95
just terminates.
the 2nd project just does not start at all.
b)
TeraTerm is able to recieve files (but you have to manually click
"recieve" while the connected system sits there and tries to send
send send send send.... a regular kermit automatically detects that)
But TeraTerm can not transfer a file to the connected system
c)
Mapping my Windows COM-Port to a FreeBSD Oracle VirtualBox VM seems
to work, but I'm not able to send CTRL + \ + C via Putty to the VM
to get back from my serial connection to Kermit to terminate it
Oh dear.....

You could set the escape char to something else (which you are able to
type)....

Hi Chris,

Yeah - I found out that it is the german keyboard layout which makes
PuTTY nervous. AltrGr (to get the backslash) and Ctrl together is not
"supported" with PuTTY. Switching to US keyboard layout works.
But yes - I could change the Kermit configuration too ;)
