kermit set autosend

The kermit set autosend command controls the sending of the autosend strings to the remote Kermit when a k send command is given. The text sent is determined by using the k set APC send "string" command.

k set APC {send | send} "string"

This command sets the autosend string for the send and receive commands. The send APC string should start up the remote Kermit, wait a bit, and send it the receive command. The send APC string should start up the remote Kermit, and then send the receive command. Control characters can be sent by using the meta character (^) in the string. Pauses can be included in the string by using the special control character ^255. For example, the send APC command is preset to: "KERMIT^M%DELRECEIVE^M" This example is all that is required to start up many remote Kermits. KERMIT followed by a carriage returns starts up the remote Kermit. The %DEL is the special delay character, which pauses for 1/2 a second. Then, the command RECEIVE and a carriage return ends the string. When Autolog executes a send command, and the k set autosend setting is on, then this string is sent before the file transfer proper starts.
