Subj : Adding kermit as a protocol option

Hey g00r00,

I've installed `gkermit` on my linux host, and in protocol editor have made a new "kermit" protocol, and the send/recv commands are like this;

Send Command ³ /usr/bin/gkermit -d /tmp/kermit-send.log -Ts %3
Recv Command ³ /usr/bin/gkermit -d /tmp/kermit-recv.log -Tr %3

With %3 as the filename(s), it seems to generate a file.lst on the client end, and inside the file that it downloads just has a line for each file with it's full filepath on the bbs, and doesn't download the actual file...

I looked at the default sexyz config which uses @%3 which I thought might be required instead, but adding the @%3 instead just errors immediately with the filename not being found according to the client.

Do you have any information about what %3 is exactly and anything else useful for the protocol editor? the wiki pages are empty for protocol editor and would love to get this working.


Cheers for your help =)
