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

C-Kermit includes:

    * The fastest and most advanced implementation of the Kermit file 
	  transfer protocol available anywhere.
    * A powerful, portable, easy-to-use script programming language to 
	  automate all your routine communications tasks.
    * Consistent operation over serial connections (direct or dialed) 
	  and network connections ¿ on a huge selection of hardware and 
	  software platforms.
    * Secure authentication and strong encryption.
    * Built-in scriptable FTP and HTTP clients plus an SSH interface
    * Configurability as an SSH Subsystem
    * Character-set translation in both file transfer and online sessions, 
	  for Western- and Eastern-European languages, Cyrillic, Greek, Hebrew, 
	  and Japanese, now including Unicode.
    * Ability to send numeric and alphanumeric pages.

This SlackBuild installs a default initialization file in the documentation
directory.  However, an initialization file is rarely required with ckermit.
