We're using the following command to suck data off of a surface meteorological
sensor we have installed on /dev/term/b, and we have kermit installed on
solaris x86:
kermit -l /dev/term/b -C "output \13avg\13, connect /quietly" > output.file
This is working *great*, with one exception... the process is hanging. We feel
like we should send some sort of break sequence after the \13avg\13 command
we're sending to our device, but we've tried all sorts of permutations and
combinations of \28, \c, \b, \B, and so forth. We've tried writing little
wrapper scripts that kill the kermit process, but they don't work, and were
serious kluges to begin with.
Does anyone know how we can tack on a break sequence to the output command
we're sending to our device, or otherwise, a switch to the command line
command that tells kermit to disconnect and quit after about 5 seconds?
Any help or insight would be greatly appreciated.
