session [<session#>] [arguments]
Without arguments, displays the list of current sessions,
including session number, associated socket, the session screen-swap
mode, the session type and state, the send and receive queue sizes,
and the remote TCP or AX.25 address. An asterisk (*) is shown next to
the current session.
Entering a session number as an argument to the session command
will put you in converse mode with that session. If you have started
the TTYLINK server, and have set Attended mode, an incoming telnet con-
nect to the ttylink port will automatically create a split-screen
session and switch you to that session.
session <session#> flowmode [on | off]
<flowmode> displays or enables / disables setting of --more--
handling for <session#>. This is handy for long directory
listings coming from an ftp session, for example . Escaping to
command mode before issuing the dir command and entering "session
# flowmode on" gives a page at a time to look at. At any time
you can escape out again and switch flowmode off. Note that a
ftp session has it's own flow command now built in. See FTP
commands later in this manual.
To avoid the --more-- prompt when the output of console commands
exceeds the screen length, turn flowmode off for session 0. This
session number always exists, but is not shown in the session
listing. Some commands, such as "more" or "dir", will ignore
flowmode since they manage their own output pagination. But, these
commands will accept a 'Q' to quit (abort) further output.
Example: session 0 flowmode off
session <session#> split [on | off]
<split> displays or enables / disables the split-window capability
of session <session#>. This is useful to separate what you enter
from the keyboard (shown in a small window at the bottom of the
screen) from incoming data, which is shown in a large window at the
top of the screen. For example, a ttylink session is begun in split
mode.
session swapmode [ems | xms | memory | file]
<swapmode> displays or defines how session screens are saved when
the associated session is not current. The initial setting is
determined by the -m command-line argument value and/or compilation
options.
