[comp.sys.atari.st] Uniterm macros

VILJANEN@FINUH.BITNET (03/15/88)

About the Uniterm macros. A line

> %SEND('cory')

should be

%SEND('cory') %SEND(10) %SEND(13)

because you need to send CR/LF after you send something like username or
password. Otherwise the copmputer in the other end doesn't process it.
%ECHO just prints CR/LF to your screen, but it doesn't SEND anything via
the modem.

Thanks to everyone who helped out with my macro problem last time.  I got
that one working.  Here is a new one I can't figure out.

It is meant for retrying pc pursuit until the city I want is free.
It seem to get stuck after the get on line 10

 
%WAIT (30)
%SEND (13)
%SEND (13)
%GET ('=', 5)
%SEND ('D1')
%SEND (13)
%GET ('@', 5)
%SEND ('C D/CASFA/12,PCP22851,DFTH9583')
%SEND (13)
%GET ('CONNECT') %JUMP (12)
%JUMP (8)
%DIAL (643 6557)
%MACRO ('CORY.MAC')
%MACRO ('CORY.MAC')

thanks,
James A. Landay

1) I didn't think that the timeout time in GET() was optional - I thought it HAD to be
there.

2) I thought I saw a msg from Simon indicating that the DIALER would consume the "connect"
message for whatever string is in the "connect message" field of the dialer.  You do not
mention how you invoke this macro, but I wonder if this comes into play.

  No no no...  Perhaps things are a bit differnt in Finland, but here
in the US, we don't send CRLF at when we hit the return key, we just
send CR...

  it "should" be:

	%SEND('cory') %SEND(13)

  Your version (CRLF) would only be useful if you were using uniterm
as a host system instead of a terminal.  If this was the original
question, I apologise, but even then it should be 13 before the 10 as
the standard is CRLF, not LFCR...

I sure could use some docs on
uniterm2a macros as i have only the executables.
thanks

How do you cancel macros in Uniterm V2.0e.  In V2.0c I 
would just type cntrl-c and it seemed to work.  It doesn't
work in 2.0e.

Thanks,
