Abstract: KERMIT is a protocol for transferring sequential files 
between computers of all sizes over ordinary asynchronous 
telecommunication lines using packets, checksums and 
retransmission to promote data integrity.  KERMIT is 
non-proprietary, thoroughly documented and in wide use.  The 
protocol and the original implementations were developed at 
Columbia University and have been shared with many other 
institutions, many of which have made significant 
contributions of their own.  KERMIT is presently available 
for nearly 200 different machines and operating systems, and 
additional versions are always under development. 

Restrictions: Not all versions implement all features.

Abstract: The TOPS-20 tape from the Spring 1984 DECUS Symposium in 
Cincinnatti is a 2400' DUMPER tape written at 1600 BPI.  The 
tape contains 26 savesets and over 10,000 disk pages. 

Among the items on the tape are a number of applications 
from Peter Gersely, including DECLIB, a collection of 
FORTRAN-callable subroutines, KILLER, an idle job killer and 
a number of privileged utilities such as MERLIN.  Also on 
the tape is a logical name editor from Randy Weeton, a 
VT100-based screen-oriented version of PTYCON from Tad 
Marshall, a class scheduling utility from Dave Edwards, FIND 
and PCL routines from Don Graham, BLISS utilities from Pat 
Farrell, NEWOPS and SPMACS from Pete Klammer.  The tape also 
includes the Spring '84 release of KERMIT for TOPS-20.
