- RUN VLT +N <VLT name>
-
- VLT will be given a new name on startup. VLT's ARexx port will
- also be given a new name.
-
- This is from the printed manual that you can get from SLAC. It's a
- freebie and professionally done. Hell of a deal :-)
-
- Sort of related: I've written a phonebook/dialer for VLT. It's in
- ARexx and is on Aminet as comm/term/vltele.lha . It's an update to a
- script I wrote almost two years ago. I think the docs are readable
- now. I've lost touch with the people who provided ideas and tested
- it back then so thought I'd post here. It's also a freebie.
-
- Some features are:
- - gadget selection of phone numbers
- - on connection, all gadgets for that system are deselected
- - automatic name/password sending
-
- If anyone can't get at Aminet, I'd be glad to email it.
-
- It also requires the arp.library (arp40_2.lha is a good arp.library
- replacement that redirects calls to the asl.library) and Willy's
- rexxarplib.library. You'll have to track these archives down on your
- own.
