C-Kermit for QL version 1.10                                     5th May 1987
----------------------------

It seems that new versions of Kermit for the Sinclair QL are appearing thick
and fast, and  this  parcel is no exception.  I have taken the original C
version written by Robert Coughlan of Liverpool University  and  greatly
expanded it, replacing may of the features which were removed from  its 
C-Kermit  base to reduce its  size;  and  also added some new ones.  These
include default devices, file name translation and transfer  interruption; 
however server mode is not supported, which the BCPL version in  [.QL2]  does. 
 It also does not support  the  Q-Connect  module or  any form of flow control 
other  than CTS/RTS.   It however includes most of  the  interactive  command 
parser features of  full  C-Kermit.   Hopefully you (or someone out there!)
will find a use for it. 

Full documentation is supplied in [.QLK]QLKKER.DOC

This version is written to be compiled using the Metacomco C development
system.  The files need to be renamed before compilation. The mapping between
the names as stored at Lancaster and the names they should have is this:

Name at            Rename to               Usage

QLKMAI.C           MAIN_C                  Global data and main program
QLKCMD.C           CMD_C                   Command processor
QLKFNS.C           FNS_C                   Protocol functions

QLKUS1.C           US1_C                   User commands
QLKUS2.C           US2_C                   The SET command
QLKSBR.C           SBR_C                   General subroutines
QLKTRM.C           TERM_C                  Terminal emulation
QLKKER.H           KER_H                   General header file
QLKCMD.H           CMD_H                   Command processor definitions
QLKUSR.H           USR_H                   User command definitions
QLKKER.LNK         KER_LNK                 Linker control file

If it turns out that somebody is interested in using this version, I would
be   pleased   to  receive  bug  reports   or   improvement   suggestions.
Unfortunately, I have no electronic mail  address so I cannot support them
that way.  Perhaps some other way could be found.
