C-Kermit is a combined network and serialcommunication software package offering a consistent, transport-independent,cross-platform approach to connection establishment, terminal sessions, filetransfer, file management, character-set translation, numeric and alphanumericpaging, and automation of file transfer and management, dialogs, andcommunication tasks through its built-in scripting language. C-Kermitincludes:

  • Along withKermit 95, thefastestand most advancedimplementation of theKermit file transferprotocol available anywhere.
  • A powerful,portable, easy-to-usescript programming language to automate all your routine communications tasks.
  • Consistent operation over serial connections (direct or dialed) andnetwork connections — on a huge selectionof hardware and software platforms.
  • Secureauthentication and strong encryption.
  • Built-in scriptable FTPand HTTP clientsplus anSSH interface
  • Character-settranslation in both file transfer and online sessions,for Western- and Eastern-European languages, Cyrillic, Greek, Hebrew, andJapanese, now including Unicode.
  • Ability to send numeric and alphanumericpages.

Windows Movie Maker is free, easy-to-use software that will let you do basic video editing, including the ability to add titles, music, and transitions. But beware: Many users say the program crashes frequently, so when you're editing a video save your work frequently.

  • Malware—which is the broad category for any malicious software designed to do things such as damage or steal files, spy on a user by recording photos, videos, or keystrokes, or usurp a user's identity—is rampant on both Windows and Macs. Malware specifically targeting Macs has been increasing significantly in recent years, as reported by Security Boulevard in 2019.

C-Kermit 9.0 is available for practically every known variation and version ofUnix, past and present, on every 32- or 64-bit architecture, and for DEC/ Compaq / HP VMS / OpenVMS on VAX, Alpha, and IA64 / IPF. Earlier releasesof C-Kermit remain available for other platforms and operating systems:

  • Microsoft Windows and OS/2 (as Kermit 95)
  • 16-bit versions of Unix (e.g.2.xBSD,Tandy 6000 XENIX)

In Unix, C-Kermit can be thought of as a user-friendly and powerfulalternative to cu, tip, minicom, uucp, ftp, ftpd, telnet, ktelnet, rlogin,ssh, find, grep, iconv, recode, expect, wget, sendpage, bc, and to some extenteven Lisp, your shell, and/or Perl; a single package for both network andserial communications, offering automation, helpfulness, and language featuresnot found in most of the other packages, and with most of the same featuresavailable on all its non-Unix platforms (such as VMS), as well as inKermit 95 on Windows9x/ME/NT/2000/XP/Vista/7.

Unix Build Instructions

[ Top ][ Unix Hints & Tips ][ Unix Installation Instructions ]
  1. Make a fresh directory and 'cd' to it. Example:
  2. Download the appropriate source code archive.
  3. If you downloaded a compressed tar file, uncompress it. Examples:
  4. If you downloaded a tar archive, 'un-tar' it. Example:

    If you downloaded a Zip archive, unzip it. Example:

  5. Now you can delete the tar archive (or zip archive) if you wish:
  6. Read the comments atthe top of the makefile to find out which target is appropriate for your computer and operating system, and then give theappropriate 'make' command. Examples:
  7. Quick install: move the resulting 'wermit' binary to/usr/local/bin/kermit and give it the same owner, group, andpermissions as minicom or cu. Move the ckuker.nr to theappropriateman page directory and rename it as appropriate, e.g. to kermit.1.For more detailed instructions, read the C-Kermit installationinstructions, especially if you had trouble with any of these steps, or ifyou will be using C-Kermit to dial out. The mostconvenient way to install is to the use makefile's install target('make install'); read about it HERE. See the configuration optionsguide for information about compile-time options for customizing thefeature set.

You can also download individual Unix binaries from the C-Kermit binaries table, but to avoid library or other versionmismatches, it is better to build from source code if you can.

VMS Build Instructions

University[ Top ][ VMS Hints & Tips ][ VMS Installation Instructions ]

If you want to install a prebuilt VMS binary, then fetch the mostappropriate VMS binary from the C-Kermit binariestable. Pick a VAX binary for a VAX or an Alpha binary for an Alpha. TheVMS version number for the binary must be less than or equal to your VMSversion. If you want to make TCP/IP connections, pick the binary for theappropriate TCP/IP product (TGV Multinet, DEC UCX, Process Software TCPware,etc), again with a version number less than or equal to yours; if none can befound, then try a UCX version (since most non-DEC TCP products includebuilt-in UCX emulation). If you downloaded a prebuilt binary, also downloadthe VMS C-Kermit text-file archive. Then read the installationinstructions for VMS.

If you want to build from source code, fetch the VMS complete archiveabove if you have VMS-based unpacking tools,otherwise get the source files and text individually as described just below.NOTE: Unzip the Zip file with 'unzip-a'.

  1. Make a fresh directory and SET DEFAULT to it. Example:
  2. Download the VMS source code Ziparchive.
  3. Unpack the Zip archive. Example:
  4. Run the build procedure:

    If you have a pre-5.0 VMS release, use the 'old' build procedure:

    If you experience any trouble, read the comments at thetop of the build procedure.

  5. This makes a WERMIT.EXE file in your current directory.Start it with:
  6. To install the version of Kermit you have just built,read the installationinstructions.

Individual Binaries

[ Top ][ Binaries Table ][ C-Kermit Installation Instructions ]

The C-Kermit binaries table isHERE.Before visiting the table, you should read this section.

When you download a prebuilt-Kermit binary, you should also download theC-Kermit text files, unpack them if necessary, andinstall them as desired. NOTE: In Unix, you can still use'make install',even if if you did not use the makefile to build your Kermit binary (themakefile as well as all the text files you need are in the text archive).

In the binaries table,filenames start with 'ck' for C-Kermit, then one letter or digit to indicatethe platform ('u' for Unix, 'd' for Data General AOS/VS, 'v' for VMS,'i' for Amiga, '9' OS-9, 'p' for Plan 9, etc). After that comes athree-digit edit number:

188: Version 5A(188), November 1992 through September 1993.
189: Version 5A(189), September 1993 through October 1994.
190: Version 5A(190), October 1994 through September 1996.
192: Version 6.0.192, September 1996 through December 1999.
193: Version 6.1.193, November 1996 through June 1998.
194: Version 6.1.194, June 1998 through December 1998.
195: Version 7.0.195, January 1999 through August 1999.
196: Version 7.0.196, September 1999 through final release 1 Jan 2000.
197: Version 7.0.197, January-February 2000.
200: Version 8.0.200, December 2001.
201: Version 8.0.201, February 2002.
206: Version 8.0.206, October 2002.
208: Version 8.0.208, 14 March 2003.
209: Version 8.0.209, 17 March 2003.
211: Version 8.0.211, 10 April 2004.
300: Version 9.0.300, 30 June 2011.
301: Version 9.0.301, 11 July 2011.
302: Version 9.0.302, 20 August 2011.
Then a possible test-version designator:'a' for Alpha or 'b' for Beta, followed by the 2-digit test number. Examples:

Test versions are included here only for platforms that do not have a finalbuild available (usually because the machine disappeared or had an OS upgradebefore the final C-Kermit release).

Note that edits 193, 194, 195, 198, 199, 202-05, and 212-299 were neverformally released (191 was only for OS/2).

The rest of the name is platform-dependent; in Unix it's the name ofthe makefile target, optionally followed by specific hardware platform and/orOS version, when it makes a difference. In VMS it's the platform ('axp'(i.e. Alpha) or 'vax'), then the VMS version number (e.g. 'vms73'), and thenTCP/IP product and version number (or 'nonet' if TCP/IP support is not builtin). And so on. VMS TCP/IP product codes are as follows:

ucx DEC / Compaq / HP TCP/IP
tgv TGV MultiNet
pst Process Software TCPware
twg The Wollongong Group WIN/TCP or PathWay
cmu Carnegie-Mellon University CMU/IP

REMEMBER: It's often better to build your own binarythan to run a prebuilt one, due to the ever-increasing likelihood of OSand/or library version mismatch.

After downloading, rename to 'kermit' or 'kermit.exe' (etc),as appropriate for your operating system and, if necessary,give execute permission, e.g. (in Unix):

Also remember that before C-Kermit can be used to dial out from Unix, it willprobably also be necessary to give the Kermit executable a certain owner andgroup, and to set it suid and/or sgid bits, to allow it access to the dialoutdevice and/or lockfile directory (the same as any other dialout software,such as cu or minicom). ReadSections 10and 11 of theUnix C-Kermit installation guide.

  1. 'curses' refers to the fullscreen file-transfer display, used whentransferring files over dialout or network connections. It's nice but itadds size and sometimes causes problems so if a 'curses' version gives youtrouble, try a no-curses (NC) version. On platforms that have a choice between'traditional curses' and 'new curses' (ncurses), you might also have a choiceof binaries -- if one doesn't work, try the other.
  2. Likewise, some binaries come in TCP/IP and non-TCP/IP versions. If yourcomputer doesn't have TCP/IP installed, choose the non-TCP/IP version (ifavailable). A TCP/IP-enabled binary almost certainly will not run onplatforms that don't have TCP/IP installed.
  3. And some binaries come in optimized and non-optimized versions; thisrefers to compile-time optimization. Choose the optimized version, but if itgives you trouble, try the corresponding non-optimized one, if available (someoptimizers have bugs). When optimization is marked in the table, O meansnormal optimization, O- means no optimization, O+ means extra optimization.
  4. Some binaries are available in gcc and non-gcc versions; that is, versionsbuilt using two different compilers. If one gives you trouble, try the otherif available. Some compilers have bugs; some compilers support features thatother ones don't.
  5. Some HP-UX binaries (notably, the HP-UX 7.00 ones) are built for longfilename (255 chars) file systems, others for short-filename (14 chars)systems; these are marked with SF and LF. Choose one that is appropriatefor your file system.
  6. Some Linux binaries are linked with libc, some with glibc. Pick the onethat is appropriate for your Linux system. Better yet, just build from source('make linux' should work on any Linux system).
If you are able to make a binary not listed in thetable
(or that is listed, but is not current), pleasecontribute it tothe archive.

With more and more news outlets incorporating video onto their websites, learning how to shoot and edit digital video news reports is a must.

But while a digital video can now be shot with something as simple and inexpensive as a cellphone, professional video editings software programs like Adobe Premiere Pro or Apple's Final Cut can still be daunting for beginners, both in cost and complexity.

The good news is that there are plenty of free alternatives. Some, like Windows Movie Maker, are probably already on your computer. Others can be downloaded from the web. And many of these free video editing programs are pretty easy to use.

So if you want to add digital video news reports to your blog or website, here are some options that will allow you to do basic video editing quickly and cheaply. (The caveat here is that if you eventually want to produce professional-looking news videos, you're probably going to want to master Premiere Pro or Final Cut at some point. Those are the programs used by professional videographers at news websites, and are well worth learning.)

Vasp Software

Blackboard

Windows Movie Maker

Vasp software, free download Mac Columbia University Student

Windows Movie Maker is free, easy-to-use software that will let you do basic video editing, including the ability to add titles, music, and transitions. But beware: Many users say the program crashes frequently, so when you're editing a video save your work frequently. Otherwise, you may lose everything you've done and have to start again.

YouTube Video Editor

YouTube is the world's most popular video upload site, so it makes sense that it offers a basic video editing program. But the emphasis here is on BASIC. You can trim your clips and add simple transitions and music, but that's about it. And you can only edit videos that you've already uploaded to YouTube.

IMovie

iMovie is Apple's equivalent of Windows Movie Maker. It comes installed free on Macs. Users say it's a good basic editing program, but if you don't have a Mac, you're out of luck.

Wax

Wax is free video editing software that's a bit more sophisticated than the other programs mentioned here. Its strength is in the array of special effects options offered. But its greater sophistication means a steeper learning curve. Some users say it can be tricky to learn.

Lightworks

This is a feature-rich editing program that comes in both free and paid versions, but people who have used it say even the free version offers lots of sophisticated features. Of course, as with any of the more versatile editing programs, Lightworks takes time to learn and may be intimidating for neophytes.

WeVideo

WeVideo is a cloud-based editing program that comes in both free and paid versions. It's both PC and Mac-compatible and offers users the ability to work on their videos anywhere or to share and collaborate on video editing projects.
