Blink Scripts
A Blink Script is nothing more than an ASCII file that contains BIX
commands and possibly your messages and memos. Blink Scripts are
generated by JLBlink and are automatically processed by the Communication
Link.
The two types of Blink Scripts created by JLBlink are UpBlink and
DownBlink. A description of each script type follows.
UpBlink Scripts
An UpBlink Script file is a one directional Script; that is, the complete
contents of the Script goes to BIX with no other action necessary from you
or from BIX. A typical UpBlink Script is the ToConf.Upb file. The
following is an example of an UpBlink Script file that could be used to
clean your BIX Mail Basket:
Mail
Delete 10156
Y
Delete 10167
Y
Delete 11101
Quit
DownBlink Scripts
A DownBlink Script file works in two directions. The Script issues
commands to BIX which cause BIX to File an item, such as a message, into
your BIX Scratchpad. The Script is first transmitted to BIX and then the
contents of your BIX Scratchpad is captured to a file. A typical
DownBlink Script is the GetMess.Dnb file. The following is an example of
a DownBlink Script file that could be used to gather your current bix
information:
