ISIS-Kermit Version 3 Differences This is a discussion of the differences between this version of ISIS-Kermit and the original "MDS" and the Leigh Instruments "MD2" versions of ISIS Kermit. This Kermit is a compatible superset of the original ISIS Kermit except for three points: the removal of the ability to specify multiple files on a SEND command, the replacement of the DEBUG command with a DEBUGGING option of a new SET command, and the alteration of the CONNECT escape protocol to conform to other Kermit implementations. I felt that it was more important to allow the user to specify an alternate file name for the destination file than to be able to send multiple files with one SEND command. The new TAKE command allows the same functionality as a multiple SEND capability. All other feature differences are described near the begining of the user manual .DOC file. Compatibility problems are discussed in the .BWR file. This version of Kermit is functionally a superset of the MD2 ISIS Kermit, but is not entirely compatible with it. First, the MD2 Kermit contained some dialog text specific to use with a VAX host. This version contains no host-specific references. Second, this version lacks the MD2 Kermit LSEND command, which allows use of a "file of files" to control the sending of multiple files. Instead, this version has a TAKE command, which can refer to a file of SEND commands. Third, the DEBUG toggle command has been replaced with the DEBUGGING option of a new SET command. Fourth, the "disk drive number" prompt in the GET command has been replaced with the DISK option of the SET command, which works with SEND and RECEIVE as well. The MD2 CWD command is implemented in this version, expanded to allow the user to input a password. The MD2 server control facility is expanded in this version to include the LOGOUT command.
