       Kermit v2.2 is a powerful public-domain telecommunications
       program for your Commodore 64 or 128 (in 64 mode).  This
       program, as its name suggests, implements the Kermit file
       transfer protocol and also has many other useful features,
       such as:

          o Comprehensive terminal emulation: Kermit emulates most
            all of the features of a DEC VT-100 terminal very
            closely, including support for VT-52 mode, personal
            function (PF) keys, and the numeric keypad.  C-128
            users may use their extra numeric keypad and grey keys
            as well.  Kermit also implements the Insert/ Delete
            features of the VT-102.

          o Multiple display options: Kermit can display 40 or 80
            columns of text using a bit-mapped screen on a standard
            40-column monitor, or, on a C-128, using the built-in
            80-column screen (with an 80-column monitor).  Kermit
            also supports the Batteries Included BI-80 80-column
            card for the C-64.

          o Graphics terminal support: Kermit emulates the main
            features of the Tektronix 4010/4014 graphics terminal,
            with resolutions of 320x200 (C-64 screen) or 640x200
            (C-128 screen).

          o Flexible file transfers: Kermit has special file types
            to transfer PETSCII (Commodore's special ASCII) and
            standard ASCII text files, binary files (graphics
            screens, etc.), Speedscript (Compute!'s popular word
            processor) files, and Power-C C language source code
            files.  All necessary conversions are handled
            automatically.

          o High-speed communication: Kermit supports 2400 bps
            communication (but only when used on a C-128 with the
            built-in 80-column screen).

       Kermit comes with complete on-disk documentation that can be
       viewed and printed out with any word processor and printer.
       A typeset and bound version of the manual is also available.

       Because Kermit is in the public domain, you can obtain it
       from many sources, such as bulletin boards, user groups, and
       major network services.  Kent Sullivan distributes Kermit on
       a 1541-format disk for $5.00 (U.S. funds only; WA state
       residents add 8.2% sales tax).  The typeset manual is $7.50.
       All orders should be made payable to Kent Sullivan and sent
       to:

       Kent Sullivan
       16611 NE 26th St.
       Bellevue, WA 98008
       (Please allow 3-4 weeks for delivery.)

       Note: Kermit does not yet support the CBM 1660 or Volksmodem
       6480 modems.
