  30. The question was how exactly do I specify how long to wait for a desired
  31. string.  I've been trying something similar to ~w99< to wait for a "<"
  32. prompt but the specified interval of time isn't quite long enough.  It seems
  33. that C-kermit wont recognize numbers larger than 2 digits.  How do I increase
  34. the wait or make C-kermit wait indefinitely until the desired string arrives?
