kermit set autoreceive

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

k set APC {send | receive} "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 receive APC string should start up the remote Kermit, and then send the send command. (Autolog automatically appends the user' s file request to the end of the k set APC receive string.) 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 receive APC command is preset to: "KERMIT^M%DELSEND " 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 SEND and a space end the string. When Autolog executes a RECEIVE command, and the k set autoreceive setting is on, then this string is sent before the file transfer proper starts. In addition, the right hand part of the k receive command is also sent to the remote Kermit, followed by a carriage return. This makes the remote Kermit SEND the files you wish to receive.
