MSKermit copyright (c) is by Columbia University in the City of New York. To simplify things I streamlined this package in update TSKERM23 by excluding all explicit support for MSKermit versions earlier than 2.32A. Most of the tools probably still are compatible with MSKermit versions through 2.30-2.32, but I have done nothing to check this out. Note that TSKERM utilities are incompatible with MSKermit versions earlier than 2.30 expect partially to version 2.29C. For additional information of later versions of TSKERM please see TSKERM.NWS. MSE.BAT (Ver. 1.9) Boot MSKermit, colors, log boots ================== This is a selective batch file for booting MSKermit with alternative keyboards. Just write MSE for the options. MSE.BAT changes screen colors provided you have Norton's screen attributes sa.com or sa.exe utility. If you do not, see the instructions within MSE.BAT. The batch invokes green text. Easily customized. MSE also keeps a log of its usage utilizing TIMELOG.EXE program. For more information on TIMELOG.EXE apply the stand-alone command TIMELOG ? MSK.BAT (Ver. 1.9) Selective boot of MSKermit 2.32A and 3.00 ================== A batch file for executing MSKermit 2.32A or 3.00, and selecting your preferred keypad layout. Before using this batch file you must rename or copy your KERMIT.EXE to MSK232A.EXE. The batch assumes that you have the files in A:\ but this is easily changed by a systematic replace with any editor. Notice that MSK works whatever your default directory. To start for the first time just enter MSK or MSK ?, and follow the instructions. As an alternative to using MSK.BAT you can, of course, directly select the init file with the -F option provided by MSKermit 2.30+. (See MSKermit's own documents for more information on the -F option.) MSZ.BAT (Ver. 1.6) Boot MSKermit and log the call ================== This is what I apply on my laptop to invoke MsKermit 2.32A. To invoke MsKermit 3.00 I use MSZ30.BAT. The batch is relatively simple, and includes the timelogging facility. In my own use I usually apply MSZ.BAT when calling VAX/VMS, and Procomm Plus or Telix when calling bulletin boards. When using my 386, I most often use MSE 6. MSK232AT.INI and MSK300AT.INI VT102 keyboards for an AT or 386 ============================= This is an enhanced VT102 keyboard definition file. It includes screen roll-back, and extra key definitions familiar to Procomm users. These extra features and their key definitions are given below after the keypad. The VT102 keyboard layout can be seen below. The keyboard definition supports the Scandinavian characters. These are easily changed into German or other international character sets. To omit them, comment the relevant lines away from MSK232AT.INI. They should be easy to locate.

MSK232ZN is very similar. Simulates more or less the Facit keypad on a laptop. It is also applicable to the standard PC/XT and some AT keypads without a need to modify.

Usage: TIMELOG your text >>path\program.log program call TIMELOG >>path\program.log Timelog is a program that can be used for keeping a log of your calls of other programs. Say, for example, that you want to log your usage of program.exe. What you do is give the commands shown above (you may want to put them in a .bat batch file). The output in program.log will be something like: Testing Sa130888 10:59:28 10:59:47 Testing again Sa130888 10:59:58 11:00:19 depending on the text you give in the first call. The elapsed times are not present, but they can be augmented by applying a separate program PCPFON.EXE on program.log. It is available in TSPFONxx.ARC. Technical notes. Timelog has two modes. 1) Text-mode: Invoked when there is text in the call. Skips to a new line, and writes the text, the date and the time. 2) Time-mode: Invoked when there is no text in the call. Stays on the same line, and writes the time. Thus no harm (other than forgoing the possibility of calculating the elapsed time) is caused if you forget the terminating timelog call. (Version 1.0 confused the lines in that case.) For an example of the usage in a batch file see MSZ.BAT. You should notice that if you edit the program.log file, editors tend to augment an ascii 26 at the end of of the file. This means that any new lines added by timelog |text| >>program.log will not be visible e.g. if you give the MsDos command "type program.log". This is a feature (and a problem) of MsDos, not the timelog.exe program. (An advanced user can circumvent this problem by a clever use of filters.) RELEASE NOTES ============= Releases 1.1 and 1.2: There are some minor changes in TSKERM releases 1.1 and 1.2 compared to release 1.0. The layout of the MSK230KP.INI keyboard has been slightly altered (num - and num * have changed places), and Home, End, PgUp, and PgDn have been inactivated to prevent unintentional scrolling in using VT102 emulation in full screen editing. Furthermore, MSK.BAT has been tested also on a hard disk configuration. Releases 1.3-1.5: The method in MSK.BAT invoking the keyboard driver has been made less complicated. The usage of MSK.BAT remains, however, exactly the same as before. The old keyboard drivers MSK230xx.INI have been tested for the newly released (1-Jul-1988) MSKermit version 2.31. No changes where needed. A new keyboard driver MSK231AT.INI has been added. It has the same standard VT102 keyboard layout as MSK230AT.INI. In addition it has a number of special keys in a layout, which is familiar to Procomm users. The layout of the special keys can be seen from the comments in MSK231AT.INI. There are more comments in MSK231AT.INI than the other driver files, and thus it is the most instructive for learning about MSKermit keyboard construction. Release 1.6: A new keyboard driver MSK231ZN.INI has been added for Zenith Z-181 laptop. It is probably suitably for any XT, but I have not tested it but on my laptop. Screen rollback has been corrected in MSK231AT after testing it on an Osborne AT06. The .bat batch files have been updated accordingly. Release 1.7: The Batches have been adjusted to reflect the release of MSKermit version 2.32 in December 1988. Releases 1.8-1.9: New keyboard drivers MSK232AT.INI and MSK232ZN.INI have been added. If you are using MSKermit 2.32, and the standard AT keyboard, this is your best bet. If you are using Dos version 3.3 you may experience problems in the drivers. This is due to incompatibilies between MSKermit and Dos 3.3, not the drivers themselves. For more details see the comments in MSK232AT.INI. Release 2.0: Stylistic changes. The batches are for MSKermit 2.32A. Release 2.1: Added the automatic file transfer scripts to the package. See TSKERM.NWS, and the comments in the scripts, for more information. Release 2.2 and later: See the separate file TSKERM.NWS.
