transmit
Use the transmit command to send (upload) a copy of a file from
your system to a remote system using SMT protocol.
The remote system needs to have a copy of the Slave
program (included in the Autolog release for Windows/DOS, UNIX, and
AMOS platforms). (To download a copy of a file from the remote system using
SMT protocol, use the receive command.)
At Autolog's command prompt, enter:
transmit file name
That's all you need to do: Autolog will automatically start Slave on
the remote system and the file transfer will begin.
You can rename the remote copy of the file by using the format:
transmit new remote file=existing local
file
You can also send a batch or group of files by using wildcarding. For
example:
transmit ??file.txt
or
transmit *.new=my*.txt
File Locations
Autolog looks in your current directory for the files you want to send
and sends the files to the directory you're currently in on the remote
system, unless you specify a different directory path. Include the path
for files that aren't in the current directory:
transmit c:\usr\yourfiles\*.*=d:\usr\myfiles\*.txt
To send a file from one directory on your system to another directory
on the remote system, you must include the path for both files. If you
give only one path, that path will be used for both the local and remote
files.
Files Specifications That Aren't Valid Locally
If you need to rename the file using a name that is not valid on your local
system, or if you need to indicate a path that doesn't exist or isn't valid
on your local system, use two equal signs (==):
transmit c:/usr/myfiles/toomanycharacters.new==LIB:file.old
You can transmit only one file at a time using "=="
syntax.
Options and Switches
The transmit command supports these options:
alarm nocompress
noerase packetsize
timeout xnet
You can also use these switches with the transmit
command to restrict which files in a batch are sent:
