I need to send a two word command as part of a uucp login sequence. How do I prevent the imbedded space from being interpreted as the signal to switch from SEND to EXPECT? The machine is an AT&T 3B2/400 running Sys V rel 3.2.2. Example /usr/lib/uucp/Systems entry: oogie Any ACU 1200 5551212 "" \d\r d> "c oogie" ogin: floyd ord: kiddies Notice the "c oogie" is what I want to send as one string before expecting "ogin:". So far, the system sends "c" and expects "oogie" which isn't what I want. I've tried single quotes as well as double quotes. Neither worked. Suggestions? Please mail them to me.

Some versions of uucp understand C octal escape sequences. On such systems, use \040 for space. -- Andrew Dingwall UniSoft Ltd., Saunderson House, Hayne Street, London EC1A 9HH andrew@root.co.uk ..!mcsun!ukc!root44!andrew +44-71-315-6600 FAX:+44-71-315-6622
