kermit
     
         a popular packet-oriented protocol from
        columbia university for transferring text files and
        binary files on both full-duplex and half-duplex 8 bit
        and 7-bit serial connections in a system- and
        medium-independent fashion, and implemented on hundreds of
        different computer and operating system platforms.  on
        full-duplex connections a sliding window protocol with
        selective retransmission provides excellent performance and
        error recovery characteristics.  on 7-bit connections, locking
        shifts provide efficient transfer of 8-bit data.
     
        when properly implemented, as in the columbia university
        kermit software collection, performance is equal to or better
        than other protocols such as zmodem, ymodem, and xmodem,
        especially on poor connections.
     
        kermit is an open protocol - anybody can base their own
        program on it, but some kermit software and source code is
        copyright by columbia university.
