This is a relatively esoteric Kermit since there are not very many DTSS installations, and of them, few have VPL1 compilers. However, brief instructions are included for converting to non-virtual PL/1. There's no manual or help file, but there are some comments at the beginning of the source file, which is in KER:DTSS.PL1 on CU20B. Thanks to Philip Crowell of Dartmouth for sending the program to us on tape. -------
