Hi!
Consider this:
kermit def \%p abcd,tak myfile.ini
Suppose I call kermit (MSDOS) from another program and that in the script
myfile.ini my password ("abcd" in this example) is referenced via the %p
variable. This works great but it seems that when I use this command line
form I cannot ALT-X from the terminal emulator session back to the kermit
prompt - it exits kermit completely. I am doing it this way because I don't
want to store my password in a file.
Does anyone know how to do this while still allowing the user to flip between
his active session and the kermit prompt?
Thanks!
