Anyone have any clues why I'm having this problem with xsend?
I'm trying to use kermit-95 for OS2 as a transfer utility between my
desktop and notebook, both OS2 warp v. 4 machines. I'm trying to
synchronize directories, following the advice in the readme that came with
readme, and the comments in the xsend.cmd file.
What happens is this:
xsend works as it is supposed to for the first few directories,
transfering files and creating subdirectories as needed. But then, after
going through about 6 or so subdirectories of the tree I'm trying to
transfer, it keeps creating directories as needed on the notebook but
getting stuck in this one (always the same) directory on the desktop. So
once it gets stuck like that it starts creating all these directories on
the notebook but copying into them the same files, from the same wrong
directory on the desktop.
E.G. it will copy
desktop/subdira -> notebook/subdira
desktop/subdirb -> notebook/subdirb
desktop/subdirc -> notebook/subdirc
desktop/subdird -> notebook/subdird
desktop/subdird -> notebook/subdire
desktop/subdird -> notebook/subdirf
and so on until I escape out.
I've tried changing the file type from labeled to binary, but that didn't
help.
I tried using the xsend32.com that came with kermit-95 but couldn't figure
it out. the xsend32.txt referred to in the documentation was not on my
disks.
Any help would of course be greatly appreciated.
