MS-Kermit 3.16 Patches
======================
This repository contains fixes for the MS-Kermit 3.16 which development stopped
in 2001 but is nowadays available under the Revised 3-Clause BSD License (see
<https://www.kermitproject.org/licensing.html>).

Pristine sources
----------------
The final MS-Kermit 3.16 (Beta 10, 22 April 2001) sources are available at
<https://www.kermitproject.org/msdoskermit/>.

Patches
-------
The patches should be self-documenting. They are only tested together and are
not meant to be cherry-picked.

Building
--------
It is possible to build MS-Kermit natively on 8086 PC with 640 KB RAM. The
patches have been tested using the following setup:
   - MS-DOS Version 3.20
   - Microsoft Macro Assembler Version 6.00B
   - Microsoft C Optimizing Compiler Version 6.00A
   - Microsoft Program Maintenance Utility Version 1.11
   - Microsoft Segmented-Executable Linker Version 5.13
   Simply, running "NMK" should be enough in the source directory.

Install
-------
The last complete distribution was MS-Kermit 3.14. Install that first and check
it's working. Then just take the KERMIT.EXE from the build.

Changelog
---------
0: The initial version. Fixes a terminal emulation issue with vttest and fixes
the build set up for MASM/MSC version 6.

License
-------
The Revised 3-Clause BSD License (the same as the re-licensed MS-DOS Kermit)
