Frank da Cruz is the person who has driven Kermit for over 20 years. I believe the original MS-DOS version was written by Daphne Tzoar. The return code stuff was a translation from the CP/M (8080/Z80) version which in turn was based on DEC-20 assembley code. Since it had fixed-length instruction skipping worked very nicely on it.
