   I am grateful for your thoughts, with them I have made this script;   
      
   #!/usr/bin/env bash   
   FILELIST="$1"   
   FILES=$(cat $FILELIST|tr '\n' ' ')   
   for FILE in $FILES; do   
           echo "/usr/bin/gkermit -d /tmp/kermit-send.log -XTs $FILE"   
           /usr/bin/gkermit -d /tmp/kermit-send.log -XTs $FILE   
   done   
      
   ... and then in the protocol editor I use this;   
      
         Active ³ Yes   
             OS ³ All   
          Batch ³ Yes   
        Hot Key ³ K   
    Description ³ Kermit (testing)   
   Send Command ³ /mystic/kermit_batch.sh %3   
   Recv Command ³ /usr/bin/gkermit -d /tmp/kermit-recv.log -XTr %3   
      
   I've tested using "qodem" terminal, and with a single and multiple files in a   
   batch it works perfectly (to download from the BBS to the client).   
      
   I shall next attempt to test the uploads, but I assume this will just be ok as   
   it is.   
      
   I shall let y'all know how it goes.    
   FWIW kermit seems to be much quicker than zmodem =)   
      
   ... That's not a bug, it's an undocumented feature
