HOW TO START AN UPLOAD
To start uploading (sending) a file to a remote host you must
also usually inform the host of the file you will be sending
it. To start the upload on the Telix end press the PgUp or Alt-S key.
This will display a menu asking you which file transfer proto-
col you want to use to send the file. Select the protocol by
either the key that is highlighted for each protocol (for example,
"X" for Xmodem) or using the up and down arrow keys to highligh the
protocol you want and pressing Enter.
Note that you can define the default protocol (the one highlighted
when the menu appears) in the dialing directory.
After you have selected the protocol, you will be asked for the
file(s) to send. You may use the wildcard characters ? and *
(see your DOS manual, for more information about wildcard
characters). During the file transfer, a full status window is
displayed, unless you are using ASCII protocol, in which case
only a status line is displayed. Information shown is the
expected time the transfer will take, the time remaining,
the number of bytes to send, the number of bytes left, and an
approximate Character Per Second rating, which can give an
idea of the effective speed of the transfer. To abort a
transfer at any time press the Escape key.
