Were you using Dave Wecker's VT100 or Kermit itself? I've downloaded
a lot of stuff with VT100 Kermit and I never once used Kermit BYE.
I usually just do a couple of CTRL-Y's when the file is done. This
gets me back to the VAX kermit prompt. This has always worked for
Arc files as well as text and binary executables.
regards,

| Help! I have tried to download files and get Xmodem failures!
The glitch is that I am calling in thru TSN, because my local site
is long distance. When I called onto the local server I had no
problems but TSN, I believe, reserves the 8th bit for its own parity
checks and usage. Does anyone know a way around this? Has anyone
used TSN and downloaded successfully? Does anyone know why space
shuttles are white? Why blackboards aren't black boards? [Ok,
I'm getting silly but seriously any help is appreciated. :-)]

613.4 | Try KERMIT? | BOMBE::MOORE | Where do you go when you're Toad Away? | Wed Jul 20 1988 21:26 | 2 |
| I've downloaded stuff via TSN using KERMIT in the past. It only
requires a 7-bit data path...

Have to agree with .4 use kermit with TSN
Xmodem won't work over TSN. I have never successfully downloaded
thru TSN using Xmodem. I've tried it on Atari's, Rainbow's, and
Amiga's.
You can use Xmodem for ascii capture though.. Text files and .UUE
files can be sent this way.

The reason XMODEM does not work over TSN or any other 7-bit data
path is that there is no 7-bit support in XMODEM. It was
designed from the start to only support 8-bit data paths.
XMODEM does support both batch (background) transfers and 1024
byte block transfers. The later versions also have built-in CRC
checking.
