Message-ID: <Fc7Fqc1w165w@torrie.org> Date: Tue, 02 Aug 94 21:20:14 -0400 Well I am using the real thing, MS-Kermit 3.12. I've posted this before but I guess it is time to do so again. To begin--I am using MS-DOS 5.0 on an 80386, Waffle 1.65 and MS-Kermit 3.12 at patch level 12. The ~\WAFFLE\BIN\RUN.BAT file begins with this line: SET KERMIT=ROLLBACK 0 This minimizes the amount of memory that MS-Kermit will use (by setting the amount of memory used for the display rollback buffer to zero). The static file has the following: device: 2 speed: 38400 driver: native The /waffle/extern/_receive file has the following one-line entry in it for Kermit (it is presented here in two lines) K /command="C:\KERMIT\K312\KERMIT def waf take C:\KERMIT\_WAFFLE.TAK, DO WAF R %d %b %i" The /waffle/extern/_send file has an almost identical line: K /command="C:\KERMIT\K312\KERMIT def waf take C:\KERMIT\_WAFFLE.TAK, DO WAF S %d %b %i" The Kermit script file, _WAFFLE.TAK, looks like this: ===================================================================== ; This is a Kermit script which will be used when the user wants ; Waffle to send or receive files and has selected the Kermit protocol. ; The first argument should be either the letter R or S. ; ; R - Receive a file ; S - Send a file TAKE C:\KERMIT\K312\MSKERMIT.INI SET PORT \%2 SET SPEED \%3 OUTPUT {MS-DOS Kermit: 3.12 25 Sept 1992 patch level 12\13\10} SET ERRORLEVEL 1 ; Indicate failure (in case we don't succeed) IF EQUAL \%1 S GOTO SND IF EQUAL \%1 R GOTO RCV SET ERRORLEVEL 4 ; Indicate failure EXIT :SND SEND \%4 IF SUCCESS SET ERRORLEVEL 0 ; Indicate successful EXIT ; and return to DOS :RCV RECEIVE IF SUCCESS SET ERRORLEVEL 0 ; Indicate successful EXIT ; and return to DOS ===================================================================== With this I could send and receive files using Kermit or Zmodem and found, as has already been pointed out, that one must tell Waffle the exact name of the file to be sent or received if Waffle is to report the file transfer as successful. ==end FAQ caption== User Contributions:Top Document: Waffle Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) Previous Document: waffle: Waffle and wwivedit Next Document: waffle: Getting waffle files via mail-based archive servers Single Page [ Usenet FAQs | Web FAQs | Documents | RFC Index ] Send corrections/additions to the FAQ Maintainer: cbwfaq@locutus.ofB.ORG (Comp.Bbs.Waffle FAQ)
