Hello:
I have a question about ASK. I am writing an MS-Kermit
script which prompts
the user to enter a filename, so I "ASK" for it. No problem
there. But I would like to be able to detect if the user merely
hits the ENTER key without typing anything else in first.
There is probably an obvious answer. I have looked all over &
experimented with no success. I am a new user of Kermit, hence I
am working from .HLP, .UPD, and .BWR while waiting for my copy
of "the book" to arrive.
Can someone please help? (Examples appreciated)
Thank you very much,
Maurice Baker
