It was in Linux, and I posted how to do this in the MYSTIC message base, but here's a TLDR;

Install gkermit from the usual repo, for ubuntu/debian `sudo apt install gkermit

Create a wrapper script called /mystic/kermit_batch.sh, the contents of which should be;

#!/usr/bin/env bash
FILELIST="$1"
FILES=$(cat $FILELIST|tr '\n' ' ')
if [[ "$(basename $FILELIST)" == "file.lst" ]]; then 
        for FILE in $FILES; do
                echo "Sending file: $FILE"
                /usr/bin/gkermit -d /tmp/kermit-send.log -Xis $FILE
        done
else 
        echo "Sending file: $FILELIST"
        /usr/bin/gkermit -d /tmp/kermit-send.log -Xis $FILELIST
fi
rm $FILELIST

Finally in the Mystic configuration ediror, goto "Editors -> Protocol Editor"
Create a new protocol called "Kermit" or whatever you want...

That's about the nuts and bolts of it.

Hope it helps =)
