INSTALLING OS-9 C-KERMIT Version: 5A(188) Date: November 23, 1992 C-Kermit 5A was adapted to OS-9 by: Adapted to OS-9 by Christian Hemsing, RWTH, Aachen, Germany E-Mail: CHRIS@LFM.RWTH-AACHEN.DE You can obtain C-Kermit from Columbia University via network (Internet or BITNET/EARN) or by mail order on DOS-format diskette or magnetic tape. To read DOS-format disks, you need DOS-diskette reading software, which can be obtained from Microware (the maker of OS-9 itself) or various public domain utilities that are available free of charge. To build C-Kermit for OS-9, collect all the C-Kermit source files into a directory: ckc*.c, ckc*.h, cku*.c, cku*.h, ckwart.c, ckcpro.w, ck9*.* There are two makefiles: ck9ker.mak and ck9ker.gcc. If you have a running version of the GNU C compiler, use ck9ker.gcc (it produces smaller, more efficient code); otherwise use ck9ker.mak which uses the standard OS-9/68k C compiler. Read the appropropriate makefile, edit the necessary changes mentioned there, create the subdirectories, and make the new Kermit by typing: make -f=ck9ker.mak or: make -f=ck9ker.gcc By default, this produces an executable C-Kermit file called wermit. Check to make sure it runs, then rename it to kermit and put it in the directory you normally use for programs, such as /h0/cmds, /dd/cmds, or /h5/cmds, or in any directory in your OS-9 PATH. Put your CKERMIT.INI, CKERMOD.INI, CKERMIT.KDD, and CKERMIT.KSD files (if any) in your home directory. (end)
