- Date: Fri, 29 Apr 88 11:35 EDT
- From: VIC%QUCDN.BITNET@CUVMA.COLUMBIA.EDU
- Subject: Announcing QK-Kermit Version 3.0 for MS-DOS
- Keywords: Pascal Kermit, Turbo Pascal Kermit, QK-Kermit, Tektronix Emulation
-
- I have a new version of QK-Kermit which was written using Turbo Pascal 4.0
- compiler. This version no longer supports CP/M systems but was specifically
- written to run on MsDos systems. It takes advantage of the new Turbo Pascal
- features such as the new Turbo Pascal Units (TPU) and the improved graphics
- facility. It is now no longer necessary to have different version of
- QK-Kermit for each of the graphics cards. The same KERMIT.EXE file will work
- on CGA,EGA,Hercules,MCGA and VGA graphics card.
-
- Last time, I had problems in sending the new version over BITNET, and ended up
- sending you the files via floppy disk. I will send the new version via a 3.25
- inch floppy if that is OK with you.

- [Ed. - Thanks, Victor! Disk received in good order, and the files have been
- installed in the Kermit Distribution, replacing version 2.8 from October 1987.
- The files on the disk have been renamed to fit the Kermit Distribution naming
- conventions. They can be restored to their original names by running the
- DOS batch file, QK3AAY.BAT. The executable program is in the form of a simple
- hex file, and can be converted back into an executable .EXE file by running
- QK3EXE (originally called HEXEXE) on it.]
