After testing the files downloaded with this script, I realised the files themselves were corrupted, so updated my wrapper script to use this syntax for the actual downloading;
/usr/bin/gkermit -d /tmp/kermit-send.log -Xis $FILE
-X means eXternal - seemed appropriate
i means Binary mode transfer (default) but wanted to force it to make sure
s means Send with the filename as the argument
Reckon this is good to go now =)
... Help! I can't find the "ANY" key.
