Syntax: RECEIVE [filespec]
The RECEIVE command tells Kermit to wait for the arrival
of a file or
file group sent by a SEND command from the other system. If only
one file is being RECEIVEd, you may include the optional filespec
as the name under which to store the incoming file; otherwise, the
original name is maintained. If the name is
not a legal file name on the local system, Kermit will attempt to
transform it to a legal name.
If an incoming file has the same name as an existing file, Kermit will either overwrite the old file or else try to create a new unique name, depending on the Setting of FILE WARNING.
If an incoming file does not arrive in its entirety, Kermit will normally discard it.
