I think Kermit the Frog said it best.
She told me to bring Kermit in.
Kermit: Now you know how it feels.
Thus Kermit transfers work"out of the box" almost every time.
Looks like Kermit was right: it's not easy being green!
Kermit figures it out and transfers it automatically in the appropriate mode.
And those who wonder why there was never another Kermit 95 release.
From the very beginning we wanted Kermit software to be free to everybody.
The Kermit ftp archive and website at Columbia will remain in place(but will not change).
Over the years, the Kermit Project and software were the subject of various controversies, notably:.
Thus inhabitants of the BBS/hobbyist culture had no reason to need or learn about Kermit.
This tended to reinforce the impression within the hobbyist culture that Kermit protocol was slow.
There is plenty of built-in help, and plenty more help to be found on the Kermit website;
Unfortunately, most information about Kermit software and protocol
that is found on external websites is inaccurate or severely dated.
(although Kermit does not require any of these conditions,
it can take advantage of them when they are available).
Kermit, on the other hand, allows you to achieve successful file transfer
and the highest possible performance on any given connection.
For example, in the manufacture of the Boeing 787, where Kermit is used to control a Tape Layer
that forms certain body components.
Unlike FTP or X-, Y-,
and ZMODEM(the other protocols with which Kermit is most often compared) Kermit protocol does not assume or require:.
Most critics of Kermit base their observations on Kermit software from early 1980s,
or upon 3rd-party Kermit protocol implementations, which tend to work poorly.
In fact in C-Kermit and Kermit 95, the command language is a full-blown
programming language with variables, control structures, functions,"subroutines", plus a few surprises.
Kermit sends each file that matches,
switching automatically between text and binary mode as appropriate for each file(daily. jpg, daily. xls, daily. txt,… ).
And at a higher level, the Kermit command language allows all sorts of handy
file selection criteria to be used in any combination, for example:.
Kermit the Frog is just one of his best friends
but we have to admit that he might be the coolest one that he has.
Kermit is like the original Everyman
and I remember watching the old Muppets with my parents and seeing Peter Sellers and people like that on.
Kermit was way more robust than any other file transfer protocol at this
time, we believed eventually it could handle bit transfers over wet clothes lines.
