Hello Colin,

Le Mar, 24 Jun 1997, Colin J. Williams =E9crivait :

The MSDOS version works quite well, but my experience has been that it
does not behave so well under W95

> The W95 version is available for about CAN$70 but I have not acquired it.

I use Kermit 95 at work, but I couldn't do the diacritics properly with
it,  as it is really a hybrid, with a text interface, and restricted to
the default fonts, as far as I can tell, which don't handle the diacritics
well.  Perhaps someone else could figure out how to make it work correctly
- perhaps the choice of Lynx display font is critical.  In any case,
although I have been a Kermit booster from way back, I have to admit I've
switched under W95:(  See my other note :)  I still use Kermit 3.14 at
home, where my machine doesn't have the guts for 95 yet.

(BTW, Kermit does Telnet, and Kermit/Zmodem downloads over telnet, too,
and more advanced emulations up to vt420)
