- # .autocis - xc script to visit CIS automagically.

- # It will log in, visit CIS Mail (if mail is waiting), then the
- # PRACTICE and UNIX Fora, uploading any prepared files, downloading
- # all new messages, and capture them into three separate files.

- # The following assumption is made about your CIS interactions:
- # You are in "expert" mode in MAIL.
- # You are in Command mode in all Fora.
- # You have opted for continuous reading in all Fora.
- # You have set your Prompt Char set to '^H' --backspace-- in all Fora.
- # This last is VERY critical to the properly trigger the WAITFORs

- # for only the current login
