These are the QMODEM scripts I use for my daily automatic mail runs from
D&D. The script D&DAUTO.SCR waits for a specific time of day, then
calls the main script. The format in the Waitfor command and the
format set in the config must match. Also, the Board Name field of your
phone book must have "Down" (without the quotes) in it, and this should
be the only board with that string in the board name. If you use a
different name, change the DIAL command.
The script D&DEXAMP.SCR is the main "driver" script. You should edit
the WHEN statements in the first section to contain your name and
password in the SEND parameter. This script does the following:
wait for Main Board prompt
ask for KMAIL door
check to see if reply file exists
if so, upload it and delete it
Download mail until no more mail exists for you (or you run out of
time on the BBS!)
Exit
The script is written in such a way that you can invoke it from the
main board prompt at any time. For instance, you could log on, d/l some
files, do some DOORS, whatever, then alt-F to run the script. Press
RETURN to get the Main Board prompt, and walk away! Your mail will be
downloaded from that point, and the script will log off when done.
The following QModem configuration options should be set for the
proper working of these scripts:
Option/Characters/Time Mask HH:MM:SS
Protocols/Toggles/Overwrite Files off
Protocols/Toggles/Autoincrement Filename on
Protocols/Toggles/Save partials on
Protocols/Toggles/ZModem autostart off
The scripts also assume that your mail lives in a directory called
C:\SLMR. If you keep mail elsewhere, change C:\SLMR to your mail
directory whereever it appears in D&DEXAMP.SCR.
If you find this useful, enjoy! If you make mods to it to make it
more useful, please let me know so I can use them, too!
