It does packetizing, checksumming, and retransmission to ensure data integrity. Microcomputer implementations of Kermit also provide termi- nal connection at any speed allowed by both the micro and the host. Kermit is like many other such protocols, but with several differences: It's free. It's documented. It's well tested and in wide use. Implementations exist for many different systems, in- cluding DEC and IBM mainframes and many microcomputers. Each implementation is written in the language best suited for a particular machine or operating system. Kermit was developed at the Columbia University Center for Computing Activities primarily to facilitate offline storage of DECSYSTEM-20 files on microcomputer floppy disks. The Kermit specification has since served as the basis for many implementations of Kermits on a wide variety of systems. Any Kermit can communicate with any other Kermit. Kermit does not rely on any host system software or servers. All actions are initiated explicitly by the user. Typi- cally, the user: starts Kermit on a microcomputer, "connects" through Kermit to the remote host, logs on, starts Kermit on the remote host, "escapes" back to the micro, and issues SEND and RECEIVE commands to send files back and forth between the two systems. Kermit can transfer files singly or in wildcard groups. QK-Kermit is a version of Kermit for MS-DOS and CP/M systems written at Queen's University in Turbo-PASCAL. The CP/M versions provide ADM3A terminal emulation; the MS-DOS ver- sion emulates a VT-100 terminal. When using the MS-DOS ver- sion with Queen's VM/CMS system, specify terminal type IBMPC. For the KAYPRO version, specify terminal type KAYPROK; for Apple IIe specify APPLE2E. Version 3.0 is for MsDos systems only. For CP/M systems use version 2.8 1 KERMIT -----------------------------------------------------------------------| ------->|-- Connect ----------------------| | | |-- <set options> --| | |-- Wait -------------------------| | |-- SENd <local-filespec> --------------------------------------------| | |-- AS <remote-filespec>------------------| | |-- RAW --| | |-- RECeive <remote-filespec> ----------------------------------------| | |-- AS <local-filespec> ---------------| | |-- REPLACE --| |-- SET --------------------------------------------------------------| | |-- <300|1200|2400|4800|9600> -----------| | | |-- <Even|Odd|Mark|None> ----------------| | | |-- <Full|Half> -------------------------| | | |-- <STandard|IBM-Xon|NoEcho>------------| | | |-- <A:|B:|C:|D:> -----------------------| | | |-- <One|TWo> ---------------------------| | | |-- <DIsk|PRinter> ----------------------| | | |-- <PACketsize> ------------------------| | |-- <TImeout> -----| | | |-- <NUmpad> ------| | | |-- <PAdchar> -----| | | |-- <STartchar> ---|-- <decimal digit> --| | |-- <ENdchar> -----| | | |-- <CNtrlquote> --| | | | | | |-- <BIt8quote> ---|-- <ASCII Char> -----| | |-- <CHecktype> ---| | |-- <Repchar> -----| |-- STatus -----------------------------------------------------------| |-- DIrectory --------------------------------------------------------| | |-- <local-filespec> --| | |-- Erase <local-filespec> -------------------------------------------| |-- REName <local-filespec> <local-newfilespec> ----------------------| |-- TYpe <local-filespec> --------------------------------------------| |-- RUn <local-filespec> ---------------------------------------------| |-- MKdir -- <Directory name> ----------------------------------------| |-- CHdir -- <Directory name> ----------------------------------------| |-- RMdir -- <Directory name> ----------------------------------------| |-- REMote <any command supported by the remote Kermit> --------------| |-- Log --------------------------------------------------------------| | |-- <filespec> --| | |-- TAke ---<filespec> -----------------------------------------------| |-- CLear ------------------------------------------------------------| |-- INput ---<seconds>---<string>-------------------------------------| |-- Output---<string>-------------------------------------------------| |-- PAUse ---<seconds>------------------------------------------------| |-- Echo ----<string>-------------------------------------------------| |-- DEfine -----------------------------------------------------------| | |-- <define-word> ------------------------| | | |-- <define-string> --| | |-- Audio-------------------------------------------------------------| |-- Parms-------------------------------------------------------------| |-- Quit -------------------------------------------------------------| |-- Local ---| 2 |-- Remote --| |-- Discon --| |-- All -----| 3 QK-Kermit Commands The Kermit commands may be abbreviated to the minimum number of unique characters; i.e. CONNECT may be abbreviated to C and STATUS may be abbreviated to ST, but SET has no abbre- viation since there is a SEND command which also begins with SE. Commands may be issued in a string as parameters to the Kermit startup command to the operating system, or as internal commands once Kermit is running. All parameter specifications are optional. If the command requires a parameter specification and one is not supplied, then Kermit will prompt you for the required information. CONNECT < option settings> This command causes the micro to simulate a termi- nal connected to another computer. This allows one to sign on to the Host computer as a terminal. The optional parameters specify the option setting (See SET command for options). To exit this terminal connect mode and return to the Kermit command mode type in a CONTROL \ . Note: When the connect command is issued, Kermit checks the line for DSR and CTS signals and if it does not find them it assumes the modem is not connected. It then issues a message Please connect modem every few seconds until it finds the signal. It may be, however, that your particular computer does not detect the presence of these signals even when the modem is connected. In this case we can by pass the signal checking by hitting the SPACE bar on the keyboard. WAIT This command is similar to the CONNECT command ex- cept in this case it waits for some to connect to it. You may consider WAIT as answering, and the CONNECT as originating. SEND <local-filename> AS <remote-filename> RAW Sends a file to the remote host system. Wild-card characters are permitted to send multiple files. Normally only the local filename is specified if you do not want a different file name on the host system. The RAW specification is only used if the remote host does not have a Kermit, and we wish to send the file as is (unpacketed). For example: 4 SEND ABCD.FIL SEND MYFILES.* AS YOURS.* SEND A:WXYZ.DAT Several single-character commands may be given while a file transfer is in progress: ^Z Stop sending this file, and don't send any further files. ^X (Control-X) Stop sending the current file and go on to the next one, if any. ^E Like ^C, but send an Error packet to the re- mote Kermit in an attempt to bring it back to server or interactive command level. ^C Return to Kermit-MS command level immediately without sending any kind of notification to the remote system. Control-X and Control-Z send the proper protocol messages to the remote Kermit to bring it grace- fully to the desired state. Control-C leaves the remote Kermit in whatever state it happens to be in. Control-E "aborts" any protocol that is tak- ing place. RECEIVE <remote-filename> as <local-filename> REPLACE Gets a file from the remote host system and puts it to the destination device (usually the disk). If the local-filename is not specified then the local filename is the same as the remote file name with the remote filetype truncated to 3 char- acters. If the local file name already exist the local file name is modified with an '&'. If how- ever the REPLACE option is specified then the old file is replaced by the newly received file. For example: RECEIVE MYPROG.PASCAL REC D:*.SCRIPT AS *.WS Several single-character commands may be given while a file transfer is in progress: ^Z Stop sending this file, and don't send any further files. ^X (Control-X) Stop sending the current file and go on to the next one, if any. ^E Like ^C, but send an Error packet to the re- mote Kermit in an attempt to bring it back to server or interactive command level. ^C Return to Kermit-MS command level immediately without sending any kind of notification to the remote system. Control-X and Control-Z send the proper protocol messages to the remote Kermit to bring it grace- fully to the desired state. Control-C leaves the remote Kermit in whatever state it happens to be 5 in. Control-E "aborts" any protocol that is tak- ing place. SET <option settings> Set the various operational parameters. Baud Rate Baud rate may be any standard rate from 300 to 9600 bps. Normal maxi- mum baud rate for MS-DOS version is 9600, and 2400 for CP/M systems. Parity May be Even, Odd, Mark, or None. Use even parity for Queen's VM/CMS system. Use parity none for VAX systems. Duplex May be Full or Half. Use Full du- plex if the remote system echos the characters, Half duplex if it does not. Protocol May be STANDARD, IBM-Xon, or NoEcho. Use NoEcho for port class VM (41), or VAX computers which do not echo the packet characters. use XON-XOFF for port class VMLINE(40 or 32); use STANDARD for computers which echo packet characters. Disk Drive Specify in the normal MS-DOS for- mat, e.g. C: The default drive is normally B: Com Port May be either One or Two. Normally Port One is used. Destination May be either DISK or PRINTER. Normally, received files go to the disk, but they may be redirected to the printer. STATUS This command show the current setting of the above option settings. DIRECTORY display the local directory ERASE erase a local file(s) RENAME rename a local file(s) TYPE display the contents of a local file The above four commands are similar to the MS-DOS and CP/M commands. "Local" refers to the MS-DOS or CP/M system which you are directly using. MKDIR Makes a directory CHDIR Changes the directory 6 RMDIR Removes a directory (See MS-DOS Manual to see how to use the above 3 directory commands) RUN <file spec> Run a program under Kermit. This is only available on the MS-DOS system and it is not implemented in the CP/M systems. REMOTE <remote-commands> Issue remote server request. Although QK-Kermit is able to issue all the remote server request as documented in the Kermit standards, refer to the Kermit documentation for the particular remote version being used for supported commands. Used as a remote Kermit, QK-Kermit only responds to remote SEND and RECEIVE commands. LOG <logfile name> This command causes all incoming data to be re- corded in a file as specified by the logfile name. To close the current logfile simply reissue the LOG command. If no logfile name is specified, log- ging is terminated. If a new logfile name is specified then the old logfile is closed and a new logfile is opened. TAKE <takefilename> This command enables a series of Kermit commands, which are stored in a file, to be executed. For example one might typically have to run a series of programs which create data which one wishes to transfer to the other computer. RUN PROG1 SEND DATA1.FIL RUN PROG2 SEND DATA2.FIL etc. CLEAR This command clears the input buffer for the IN- PUT command after it has checked to see that the Modem is connected. INPUT <seconds> <string> This command will read the incoming characters until it finds a match with the string specified in the parameter. It will timeout after the num- ber of seconds specified in the parameter. OUTPUT <string> This command will send the string specified in the parameter to the serial port. 7 PAUSE <seconds> This command will delay the execution for the number of seconds specified in the parameter. ECHO <string> This command will display the string specified in the parameter to the console screen. DEFINE <define-word> <define-string> This command enables one to define a word equal to a string. This is useful in alleviating the necessity of typing in long command strings or it can be used to provide a synonyms for other com- mands. For example: DEFINE VM CONNECT 9600 EVEN FULL NoEcho B: ONE DISK DEFINE DELETE ERASE DEFINE BYE QUIT ALL If no define-string is specified, the specified define-word is deleted. If DEFINE is issued with no parameters, a list of all define-words cur- rently in effect are displayed. NOTE: DEFINES are initialized from a file named KERMIT.DEF when Kermit is initiated. If any new DEFINES are specified during the Kermit session, then at Kermit termination Kermit will attempt to write a new Kermit.DEF file. Note that the read- ing and writing of this Kermit.DEF file is to the default disk drive. As a result, for new defines to be created, the default disk must have the write-protect tab removed. As distributed, the KERMIT.DEF file contains the following define-words. Define-word Define-string VM Connect 9600 Even Full NoEcho B: One Disk VM1200 Connect 1200 Even Full NoEcho B: One Disk PC Connect 9600 Even Full NoEcho B: One Disk AUDIO This is a toggle command which when it is toggled on will provide an audiable sound with each kermit prompt. PARMS This is a toggle command which when it is toggled on will display the setting of the packet parmeter when a STATUS command is issued. 8 QUIT <quit-option> terminate the local and/or remote Kermit. QUIT LOCAL or QUIT will terminate QK-Kermit. QUIT REMOTE will terminate the remote Kermit. QUIT DISCON will terminate the remote Kermit and log off the remote host com- puter. QUIT ALL will terminate the remote Kermit and log off the remote host com- puter and then terminates the local QK-Kermit. NOTE: "filespec" refers to a file specification of the form d:name.ext where 'd' is the disk drive designation, 'name' is the first level file name (the filename for CP/M, MS-DOS, and VM/CMS systems), and 'ext' is the file extension (a 3 character extension for CP/M or MS-DOS systems, the 8 character filetype for VM/CMS systems). If 'd:' is not specified, the default disk drive is assumed. APL Character Set For PC's equipped with the APL character ROM, one may use the APL character set. To invoke APL character set send an ESC "{" sequence. Use ESC "}" to return to normal Character set. 9 Installing QK-Kermit QK-Kermit may be obtained on diskette from the Micro Infor- mation Centre in Dupuis Hall. If you have the distribution diskette, simply copy the fol- lowing files to your working system disk: KERMIT.EXE KEYTABLE.DAT KERMIT.DEF Recompiling QK-Kermit 3.0 Compiling QK-Kermit 3.0 requires Turbo Pascal version 4.0. QK-Kermit 3.0 consist of a main program KERMIT.PAS and 14 separately compiled units which are as follows: 1. DRIVER.PAS 2. FONTS.PAS 3. KGLOBALS.PAS 4. MODEMPRO.PAS 5. SYSFUNC.PAS 6. DEFWORDS.PAS 7. LOCAL.PAS 8. PACKETS.PAS 9. SENDRECV.PAS 10. MISCCOMM.PAS 11. REMOTEU.PAS 12. TEK4010.PAS 13. VT100.PAS 14. SETSHOW.PAS The first 2 unit DRIVER and FONTS are from Turbo Pascal 4.0 but are supplied as source so they both need to be compiled into a TPU file. Before you compile the DRIVER.PAS file you must convert the BGI files into OBJ files, and similary before compiling the FONTS.PAS file you must convert the CHR files into OBJ files. See the RegisterBGIdriver and RegisterBGIfonts function in Chapter 27 of the Turbo Pascal 4.0 which describs how to compile these two units. Specify KERMIT.PAS as the primary file in the COMPILER menu. And in the OPTIONS - COMPILER - MEMORY SIZE menus specify the stack size as 32768 and the heap limit to 131072. Use the MAKE option in the COMPILE menu to compile the kermit into a KERMIT.EXE file. If you are only using 5.25 inch floppies you will find that the source files and the compiled TPU files will not fit on the same disk, so you will have to compile the file seperately and move the files you need onto a floppy as you need them. 10 11 Using QK-Kermit with Kermit-CMS The following is a suggested approach to do file transfer between a micro and the Queen's mainframe computer. Basic procedure: 1. Place the system disk created as above in drive A and your data disk in drive B; 2. Type in "KERMIT" to start up QK-Kermit. 3. Type in "VM" which will configure Kermit at 9600 bps for the VM/CMS system with files defaulting to the B: drive and place QK-Kermit into terminal mode. The VM command is a define-word provided in the distributed KERMIT.DEF file. 4. Turn on the modem, and logon to the VM/CMS system as normal. Use terminal type IBMPC. 5. After logging on, type "Kermit" on the VM/CMS system to invoke CMS-Kermit and issue the SERVER command. This command will automatically return you to QK-Kermit on the micro. 6. Issue SEND or RECEIVE commands to send or get the files desired. 7. You may also wish to issue a DIRECTORY command to see what files you have on your floppy disk, or issue the REMOTE DIRECTORY command to list files on the CMS sys- tem. 8. If required, one can move back to terminal mode by issu- ing a "Connect" command to QK-Kermit. When returning to back to terminal mode from QK-Kermit command mode, with Kermit-CMS still in SERVER mode, the first command you issue is not displayed. Once the first command is exe- cuted, Kermit-CMS returns to normal mode and all com- mands are displayed. 9. When you are finished you can issue a QUIT ALL command to logoff from the VM/CMS system and terminate your re- mote Kermit. 12 Some useful hints: 1. Create a few DEFINE words for frequently used Kermit commands. This will allow lengthy commands to be issued with a single word. The following are some suggestions. DEFINE VM Connect 9600 Even Full NoEcho B: DEFINE VMLINE Connect 9600 Even Half IBM-Xon B: DEFINE LIST Remote Directory DEFINE PUSH Run A:Command.Com DEFINE BYE Set A: ; Quit All For example, using the VM define above, you can con- figure Kermit for the VM/CMS system and be put into "connect" mode directly by simply issuing the command KERMIT VM 2. The Kermit protocol is designed to recover automatically from minor telecommunications line errors. However, there are problems which may result in the file transfer being "hung". If Kermit hangs up in the middle of file transfer it may be necessary to issue several carriage returns before one can get back the remote Kermit prompt. It may occasionally be necessary to restart the remote and/or local Kermit after this. 3. In the above section describing the use of QK-Kermit with Kermit-CMS we basically issue QK-Kermit commands as opposed to Kermit-CMS commands. If desired, one can interact with Kermit-CMS by issuing SEND and RECEIVE commands from Kermit-CMS instead of from QK-Kermit. 4. QK-Kermit will act as a server Kermit whenever QK-Kermit is in the 'Connected ' mode; i.e. QK-Kermit does not re- quire a SERVER command as does Kermit-CMS. QK-Kermit will automatically assume there is a server request whenever it see a SOH character. 5. QK-Kermit 3.0 has the ability to send and receive long packets. However the default packet size is set to 94 byte packets. In order to receive long packets one must specify a large packetsize. To set a large packetsize one must first toggle the PARMS toggle on, then issue the SET PACKETSIZE command. In order for QK-Kermit to send long packets, the other Kermit must inform QK-Kermit as to the size of packet it can receive. The maximum length of a packet is 9024 bytes. 13 Kermit-CMS commands Although Kermit-CMS is documented in a separate HELP file (type HELP KERMIT), the following summary of Kermit-CMS re- mote server commands is included for the convenience of the the QK-Kermit user. Although QK-Kermit is able to issue all the remote server request as documented in the Kermit stand- ards, only some have been implemented on the Kermit-CMS system here at Queen's. Some of the useful commands are listed below. REMOTE ---- DIRECTORY --------------------------------------------------------| | |-- <remote-filespec> --| | |-- TYPE <remote-filespec> -------------------------------------------| |-- ERASE <remote-filespec> ------------------------------------------| |-- RENAME <remote-filespec> -----------------------------------------| |-- FINISH ----------------------------------------------------------| |-- LOGOUT -----------------------------------------------------------| |-- HELP -------------------------------------------------------------| where DIRECTORY displays the VM/CMS directory TYPE displays the contents of a VM/CMS file ERASE erases a VM/CMS file RENAME renames a VM/CMS file. You will be prompted for the new filespec. FINISH terminates Kermit-CMS LOGOUT terminates the remote Kermit and log off VM/CMS HELP displays help information 14 General Comments QK-Kermit is written in Turbo Pascal so it is relatively easy to understand and modify if extensions are desired. The source code is distributed with the diskette. Version 2.5 Improvments and Additions 1. Automatic server mode. QK-Kermit will automatically en- ter into server mode upon receipt of a SOH character. This feature was inadvertently disabled in the 2.4 ver- sion. 2. Insert Mode Indicator - When in insert mode the cursor changes from a thin line to a fat block. 3. Sub directory commands - MKDIR, CHDIR and RMDIR were added. Also Kermit allows the use of subdirectories in the file specification. 4. Audio toggle - Kermit will now run quietly without any audiable promp unless the audio toggle is turned on. 5. Packet parameters can now be specified at run time. Note however that QKKERMIT will still automatically ad- just the packet parameters to match the other Kermit it connects with. 6. APL character set can be selected by entering a ESC { character. 7. Fix bug-related to packet parameters when running with VAX Kermit. Version 2.6 Improvments and Additions 1. VT100 simulation upgraded. Many of the VT100 features that were missing in the 2.5 version have now been added. 2. Fixed a bug which caused keyboard input to interfer with modem data when transferring data at lower baud rates. 3. Implemented overlays for the QKTEK10 version of QKKERMIT. 4. Printer option. Enable QKKERMIT to accept an escape se- quence which will direct the output to the printer. i.e. one can now use the TPRINT command in CMS to direct output to printer. 5. Enable the sending of commands for the remote Kermit the execute. Along with changes to KERMIT-CMS this will al- 15 low the TRANSLATION option to be turned on and off. By specifying an appropriate define for BINARY one can now transmit a binary file as follows: BINARY SEND filename.filetype or BINARY RECEIVE filename filetype Prior to the implementation of this feature one had to connect to KERMIT-CMS and turn the translation off and then go back into server mode before transferring the file. 6. Enable the downline loading of DATE and TIME from the host system. Two define words DATE and TIME will cause this information to be loaded. 7. Insert Mode indicator bug (Fat cursor). Enable the Fat cursor to appear on a variety of video boards. 8. Fix bug in RECVFILE. The disk specification in the re- mote filename was incorrectly used in the local file name. Version 2.7 Improvments and Additions 1. Fix miscellaneous VT100 emulation bugs. 2. Fix system calls for MS-DOS version 3. 3. Fix repeat count bug for control character. 4. Buffered disk IO for MS-DOS version. 5. Distinguish between send and receive packet parameters. 6. TEK4010 Emulation which does not require the use of overlays or the use of the Graphic Toolbox. Version 2.8 Improvments and Additions 1. Put the Tek4010 emulation code into a separate file and create different include files for CGA, EGA and Hercules cards. 2. Add graphics input (GIN) to the Tek4010 emulation. 3. Fix Sendfile procedure to enable it to send file from a non-default drive. 4. Add fix and changes provided by G.W.Selke - change PutInitPacket, closefile in abort state,range checking for parms, MkDir/RmDir/ChDir error handling, 16 displaydiskstatus for non default drives, break handl- ing, upgrade directory display. 5. Add DIR option /P to allow user to see the filesize, date and time for each file. Version 3.0 Improvments and Additions 1. Version 3.0 takes advantage of the modularity feature of Turbo Pascal 4.0 which enables QK-Kermit to be easily modified and upgraded without having to recompile the entire source code each time. 2. Version 3.0 takes advantage of the improved graphics features of Turbo Pascal 4.0. This make the source code for the TEK4010 portion of the code simplier and faster. It is no longer necessary to have a separate version for each of the various graphics card adapters. This single version should handle the following graphics cards : CGA,EGA,Hercules,MCGA,VGA,AT&T and PC3270. 3. Long packet size . One can now specify packet sizes up to 9024 bytes. Note however the maximum packet size used is also dependent on the other Kermit to which you are transfer data with. 4. New commands add to allow the creation of "logon script files". The new commands are CLEAR,INPUT,OUTPUT,PAUSE and ECHO. These command can be placed into a file and issued using the TAKE command. 17 KEYTABLE Specifications The following describs the layout of the KEYTABLE.DAT file used by QK-KERMIT to assign the keyboard. Each record in the file corresponds to the key position. e.g. the escape key is the first keyposition and the data is located in record 1. Only columns 1 and 2 , or columns 4-5 and 6-7 contain useful data, the rest of the record is treated as comments only. If all the data for a key is blank then the value of the key is send unchanged. Column 1 and 2 may contain one or two ascii characters. If column 1 contains a non blank ascii character then and ESCape character is sent followed by the characters found in columns 1 and 2. If column 1 is blank and column 2 is non blank then only the character in column 2 is sent with no preceding ESCape character. Thus we can specify for each key the following possibilities: column1 column2 Sequence sent blank blank char of key char1 blank ESC - char1 char1 char2 ESC - char1 - char2 blank char2 char2 Since this file was to be created by a text editor it was impossible to place control characters in columns 1 and 2, we allow the equivalent data character specification in hex. So that columns 4-5 is the hex equivalence of what would be placed in column1 and columns 6-7 the equiv- alence of col- umn 2. e.g. If we wish to send a DEL (7F), we would place a 7F in column 6-7. Note that if we wish to specify data in column 4-5 and 6-7 then columns 1 and 2 must be blank. 18 Appendix A. Code assignments for Keys specified by KEYTABLE.DAT.
