Hello John
How are you. Sorry for late writing. I was out of
station for last couple of days only today I joined my
work.
John I am unlucky I do not have the Kermit S/W in my
winchester disk.
Is it necessary to load any communication S/W like
Kermit in the winchester disk, because I also can not
load any S/W in my winchester disk. Now I think I am
in trouble.
Fortunately I also have VanDyke's CRT404 with me & I
can load this in my WINnt PC.
======================================================
Then, find the
file(s) you want, and use the RSK 'type' command to
list them to the port
you are attached (logically and physically) to. Use
your terminal
program's "logging" or "screen capture" function,
and... there you are!
=====================================================
Sorry please I could not understand your avobe
sentence.
What you mean by
""""use the RSK 'type' command to list them to the
port
you are attached (logically and physically) to. Use
your terminal program's "logging" or "screen capture"
function,""""
Could you please tell me the process/commands in
detail how to use this software & which is the
sutiable cable (RS232) to link these two PC's.
It would be great help from you side.
Best regards
Kishore
