Kermit will take a look at the file before sending it.  If it thinks that
it's only text (or only 7-bit data in the file), it'll send it as TEXT.  We
have seen instances, though, where Kermit "guesses" incorrectly.
 
If you could e-mail me back with information about the file, I'd like to
take a look at it and see if I can figure out what is happening.
