MS-DOS Kermit Scripts Library
Most recent update: 25 May 2000.
Scripts for MS-DOS Kermit. See the MS-DOS Kermit distribution diskette
or ZIP file for additional scripts.
NOTE: Normally these scripts would have a filetype of ".KSC"
(Kermit SCript). However, due to the propensity of Windows-based browsers
to "open" links by feeding files to their associated applications, users
of Kermit 95 would have no way of viewing these scripts, rather than
executing them. Therefore, we have renamed them to ".KDS" so you
can see them.

Kermit-To-FirstClass:
KTFC is the acronym for "Kermit To FirstClass" and is the name
of a script set which allows Kermit to communicate automatically
with the FirstClass Server (trademark SoftArc Inc.), widely used
to provide e-mail and BBS services. With KTFC, messages are
read and composed off line. Messages in conferences on the
FirstClass server can be read automatically. Requires MS-DOS
Kermit 3.16. Author: Peter Easthope.
Oldies but Goodies:
- product.kds
- Do-It-Yourself Arithmetic (1991).
- rolmunix.kds
- A very careful script providing automatic login to Columbia's UNIX systems
(as they were in 1991), over either of two Rolm data phone models, through a
terminal server. MS-DOS Kermit 3.11 required.
- rolm7171.kds
- A similar script, but for logging into IBM mainframe fullscreen sessions
through a 7171 protocol converter. 1991; MS-DOS Kermit 3.11 required.
- rolminfo.kds
- Similar to rolmunix, but after logging in, this one also puts the user
in the desired application, such as e-mail. 1991; MS-DOS Kermit 3.11 required.
