If you're interested, I can try to translate a setup I have that works with
Maximus for Synchronet... shouldn't be too hard.  In fact, here's what I
have:

Protocol Kermit
         Type            Batch
% ;       Type            Errorlevel
% ;       Type            Bi
         Type            Opus
%
         LogFile         Kermit%K.Log
         ControlFile     Kermit%K.Ctl
         DownloadCmd     Kermit.Exe -p%p -b%W -t%k -m%d -f%D -r%t Kermit%K.Ctl
         UploadCmd       Kermit.Exe -p%p -b%W -t%k -m%d -f%D -r%t Kermit%K.Ctl
         DownloadString  Send %s
         UploadString    Get %s
         DownloadKeyword Sent
         UploadKeyword   Got
         FilenameWord    1
         DescriptWord    4
 End Protocol

...that's verbatim from the Maximus PROTOCOL.CTL file.

The command line parameters:

%p          The current port number (0=COM1, 1=COM2, and so on). Note that
this is 0-port based...

%W          The "steady baud rate," as passed via the -s command
line parameter.  (I think it's the DCE)

%k          The current node number. ("0" means no node number.)

%d          The current message area name.

%D          The current file area name.

%t          The amount of time the user has left (in minutes).

%K          The current node number in hexadecimal format, padded with
leading zero to make it two characters. ("00" for no task
number.)

If you want the actual KERMIT.EXE, let me know and I'll send it to you
(it's DOS).  Hope this helps.

Later,
Sean
