Here is C-Kermit 6.1 Beta.05. I thought Beta.04 would be it, but it had one
fatal problem plus a few minor ones, fixed in Beta.05, plus some long-awaited
and important VMS fixes came in. I'm hoping to be able to make the public
announcement early next week, so let's hope this one is OK.
CHANGES SINCE BETA.04
. Fixed: UUCP lockfiles were not always being deleted (this was the bad one).
. Fixed: Various other subtle problems with UUCP lockfiles.
. Fixed: Various problems with directory-name parsing in VMS (Lucas Hart).
. Fixed: Labeled-mode transfers with relative pathnames in VMS (Lucas Hart)
. Fixed: Problems transferring Fortran carriage control files in VMS (ditto).
. Fixed: HP-UX 9.x on Motorola not to use floating-point timers (again).
. Fixed: Unwanted "Alias => blah" messages removed during TCP connection.
. Fixed: AT&T 7300 builds (thanks to Peter Mauzey).
. Fixed: SET / SHOW { STREAMING, RELIABLE, CLEARCHANNEL } were invisible.
. Fixed: HELP SET [ TERMINAL ] ESCAPE text.
. Fixed: UNIX ../ and ./ stripping when sending.
. Added: More-sensible SET MODEM TYPE keywords for USR and Megahertz.
. Added: \v(model) for Digital UNIX.
. Added: Assorted filetypes to AOS/VS text/binary patterns lists.
. Added: More cross-references to HELP and SHOW messages.
. Added: Missing switch descriptions in HELP SEND.
UUCP lockfiles still need a lot of testing, especially on HP-UX and AIX.
Most of the major VMS issues have been cleared up in this edit, except for
CMU/IP, which I assume is still nonfunctional.
Since Beta.05 really will be going public, I need as many binaries as possible
to go with it. As before, if you can send in binaries that are not marked by
"+", or that are not listed below at all, I'd appreciate it. Please upload
them to:
ftp://kermit.columbia.edu/kermit/incoming/
(in binary mode of course) with names like those used in the binaries list
bwlow.
Thanks!

Kermit ftp site. The others are mostly Beta.02 orearlier Alpha or Beta
tests built at sites I can't reach any more or that have since been upgraded
to newer OS versions, or built on systems that don't work any more, or that
were sent in by others.
