[Simh] Transferring data

[Robert Thomas]

Putty is a fairly compact open source terminal emulator.  Would Putty be a
viable alternative to Kermit?  We made extensive use of Kermit before the
internet existed.  It was usually over modems between PDP-11's running
RSTS/E or RSX-11M.  We had a lot of command files that used utilities to
turn binary data into ascii and unpack it at the receiving site.  It worked
but reliability was always a problem.
