Reportedly it was upon hearing of this mistake that Kermit Schafer was inspired to begin collecting bloopers, although the exact circumstances of the event have been debated.

Kermit Schafer ( 24 March 1914 – 8 March 1979 ) was an American writer and producer for radio and television in the 1950s and 1960s.

Clark's TV blooper shows always carried a dedication to " Kermit Schafer, Mr. Blooper ", and the success of Clark's program led to the development of many imitators which continue to be broadcast as of 2008, and the inclusion of " blooper reels " on DVD releases of TV shows and films has become commonplace.

( In his comedy special No Cure For Cancer, Denis Leary incorrectly mentions, in passing, Kermit singing the song at the Henson funeral as well.

Kermit was developed at Columbia University in 1981 to allow students to transfer files between IBM or DEC DECSYSTEM-20 mainframe computers and removable media on microcomputers ( initially Intertec Superbrains running CP / M ).

Kermit is a computer file transfer / management protocol and a set of communications software tools primarily used in the early years of personal computing in the 1980s ; it provides a consistent approach to file transfer, terminal emulation, script programming, and character set conversion across many different computer hardware and OS platforms.

The Kermit protocol supports text and binary file transfers on both full-duplex and half-duplex 8 bit and 7-bit serial connections in a system-and medium-independent fashion, and is implemented on hundreds of different computer and operating system platforms.

When properly implemented, as in the Columbia University Kermit Software collection, Columbia University's Kermit group claim performance is equal to or better than other protocols such as ZMODEM, YMODEM, and XMODEM, especially on poor connections.

On connections over RS-232 Statistical Multiplexers where some control characters do not transmit, Kermit can be configured to work, unlike protocols like XMODEM that require all 256 bytes be transmittable.

IBM mainframes used an EBCDIC character set and CP / M and DEC machines used ASCII, so conversion between the two character sets was one of the early functions built into Kermit.

Kermit can be used as a means to load boot software.

For example CP / M machines used many different floppy disk formats, which meant that one machine could not normally read disks from another CP / M machine, and Kermit was used as part of a process to enable the transfer of applications and data between CP / M machines and other machines with different operating systems.

PIP with a very low baud rate ( because it had no built-in error correction ) could be used to transfer a small simple version of Kermit from one machine to another over a null modem cable, or failing that, a very very simple version of the Kermit protocol could be hand coded in binary in less than 2K using DDT, the CP / M Dynamic Debugging Tool.

Once that was done the simple version of Kermit could be used to download a fully functional version.

The Kermit protocol evolved through the 1980s into a de facto data communications standard for transferring files between dissimilar computer systems.

Kermit software has been used for tasks ranging from simple student assignments to solving compatibility problems aboard the International Space Station.

Most versions had a user interface based on the original TOPS-20 Kermit.

The MS-DOS version of Kermit was developed in 1983.

Later versions of some Kermit implementations also support network as well as serial connections.
