     This archive contains files in Intel hex format which can be used to 
create versions of Kermit-80 (CP/M Kermit) version 4.11 which will run on 
various CP/M systems. Two hex files must be extracted -- CPSKER.HEX (the 
system-independent portion of CP/M Kermit) and one of the CPVxxx.HEX files 
(which one depends upon which system Kermit-80 is being built for). The file 
CPAAAA.HLP (also in this archive) shows the systems supported by Kermit-80 and 
which hex file should be extracted to support a given system.
     To build CP/M Kermit:    
o Extract CPSKER.HEX from CP411HEX.ARK
o Extract CPVxxx.HEX (where CPVxxx.HEX is the appropriate system module)
	from CP411HEX.ARK
o If you wish to use MLOAD to combine these two files (and this is by far
	the easiest way to get a running Kermit), extract MLOAD.COM from
	CP411HEX.ARK
o Using DDT, DDTZ, MLOAD, etc., combine these files to create a working
	version of CP/M Kermit for the system in question.
For example, here's how one would build Kermit for the Microbee.
Extract CPSKER.HEX and CPVBEE.HEX from CP411HEX.ARK.
If using MLOAD, extract MLOAD.COM from CP411HEX.ARK.

     NOTE:  An executable version of MLOAD (MLOAD.COM) is included in this
archive and may be used to build CP/M Kermit for specific systems. MLOAD
may also be obtained from the Kermit distribution. Both MLOAD and DDTZ
may be found in the CP/M archives on wsmr-simtel20.army.mil.
     If the desired system is not listed in CPAAAA.HLP, Kermit-80 will 
have to be adapted for the new system. See CPKERM.DOC (not in this archive) 
for details.
     Happy Kermitting!
