In response to increasingly frequent requests, I'm happy to announce the
availability of an embeddable Kermit protocol. This is a tiny but modern
implementation of Kermit protocol (send and receive only; no server)
written in ANSI C suitable for embedding and realtime applications as well
as for creation of DLLs. It is the real thing, written at the Kermit
Project at Columbia University, the original developers of the Kermit
protocol. More about Embedded Kermit (EK) here:

http://www.columbia.edu/kermit/ek.html

This is not free software and it is not online for public viewing. As you
may know, the Kermit Project is funded entirely by revenue it generates.
The purpose of EK is to generate badly needed revenue during the economic
slump, and to furnish people who need a compact and embeddable version of
Kermit protocol with -- at last -- an implementation "from the source"
that works with other correct Kermit implementations such as C-Kermit,
G-Kermit, MS-DOS Kermit, and Kermit 95, and that is fully supported by
the developers.

If you're interested in looking at it, please send an inquiry by email to:

ker...@columbia.edu

Thanks.
