- I just checked out my Kermit 2.2 docs, and on page 23 it explains the
- SAVE command and specifically mentions the KERMIT.INI file.
- Once you get all of your parameters, etc., set up, you can save it to
- a new KERMIT.INI. The key here is that the old one must be scratched
- (or renamed, my preferred option), because Kermit will not overwrite
- the file automatically, but instead give you a 'file exists' disk
- error.
- Good luck!
