I've used Kermit on Windows before. I already have Kermit installed on |
| 22 |
Linux and use it every day. I've never run UUCP on Windows, and have |
| 23 |
no idea that would be involved in getting it running in Win10 (I know |
| 24 |
that WSL is out of the question -- I haven't looked into Cygwin). |
