Hi,
This is my first post on any forum so please bear with me. I have worked with PDP11's for 25 years and I admit that I do not love these machines. That said, I do believe they are very dependable and it is fascinating to see what they can accomplish. My latest job is using an emulated PDP11-53 running on a Windows PC (XP Pro). The system uses Strobe Data's OSPREY card. We don't have any documentation for the PDP11 and the overall setup is quite different from what I am used to. The editor on the PDP11 system is extremely painful so we are looking for a way to transfer text files back and forth so we can use Windows apps to create/modify the text files and then transfer them back to the PDP11.
We have kermit 95 on a laptop and there is a Kermit.PRG file on the PDP11, but we don't know how we are supposed to set up the PDP11 kermit to get it talking to the laptop kermit.
Does anyone have any ideas, please? And if you need more info, we will try to find it.
Thank you.
