: Maybe I can clarify the matter for you. APC commands are recognized
:(the stuff coming at a machine from outside) only by the VT200/300 terminal
:emulators. It's a terminal-like command sequence, and to be recognized and
:acted upon it must be received by an appropriate terminal emulator.
: Terminal emulation is NOT active when transferring files or sending
:file-like commands from the Kermit prompt. It is active only when you say
:CONNECT. The command interpreters (Kermit command line stuff) are not
:terminal emulators, the host o/s shell isn't a terminal emulator either.
: Joe D.
So I guess this means that macros like pcget and pcsend will only work
with with C-Kermit. Dang! And I was hoping to emulate similar
functionality from the pc end of a MSK to C-Kermit connection. Oh
well, c'est la vie!
