- session [<session#>] [arguments]
-
- Without arguments, displays the list of current sessions,
- including session number, associated socket, the session screen-swap
- mode, the session type and state, the send and receive queue sizes,
- and the remote TCP or AX.25 address. An asterisk (*) is shown next to
- the current session.
-
- Entering a session number as an argument to the session command
- will put you in converse mode with that session. If you have started
- the TTYLINK server, and have set Attended mode, an incoming telnet con-
- nect to the ttylink port will automatically create a split-screen
- session and switch you to that session.

-
- session <session#> flowmode [on | off]
-
- <flowmode> displays or enables / disables setting of --more--
- handling for <session#>. This is handy for long directory
- listings coming from an ftp session, for example . Escaping to
- command mode before issuing the dir command and entering "session
- # flowmode on" gives a page at a time to look at. At any time
- you can escape out again and switch flowmode off. Note that a
- ftp session has it's own flow command now built in. See FTP
- commands later in this manual.
-
- To avoid the --more-- prompt when the output of console commands
- exceeds the screen length, turn flowmode off for session 0. This
- session number always exists, but is not shown in the session
- listing. Some commands, such as "more" or "dir", will ignore
- flowmode since they manage their own output pagination. But, these
- commands will accept a 'Q' to quit (abort) further output.
- Example: session 0 flowmode off
-
-
- session <session#> split [on | off]
-
- <split> displays or enables / disables the split-window capability
- of session <session#>. This is useful to separate what you enter
- from the keyboard (shown in a small window at the bottom of the
- screen) from incoming data, which is shown in a large window at the
- top of the screen. For example, a ttylink session is begun in split
- mode.
-
-
- session swapmode [ems | xms | memory | file]
-
- <swapmode> displays or defines how session screens are saved when
- the associated session is not current. The initial setting is
- determined by the -m command-line argument value and/or compilation
- options.
