.kermrc question (UNIX)
Barry Tolnas
In order to make my modem connect properly to one site, I have to set
an internal register in my modem. I would like this to be done
automatically in my .kermrc. Is there a way to send commands to my
modem? I didn't see a command listed in the docs which would do this.
The way I do it now is to manually type `c' to connect to the modem
and then type "ATS28=255" which sets the necessary register.
Thanks for any suggestions,
Barry

Yeah, just put the line `output ats28=255' in your .mykermit file.
This is documented in the book and and you can see examples of it in
any of the dialing scripts...

The best way to handle this is to use the built in dial commands:
you can either use "set dial init \13ATS28=255\13" or
"set dial dial-command \13ATS28=255DT%s\13"
move info about the dial commands in "Using C-Kermit"

I'm not sure I'm clear on your requirements -- does /dev/tty do what you want?

Note the \v(ttyfd) variable. Is that what you are talking about?
Or are you just talking about "set line /dev/ttyp01" type commands?
If so, just dump it into your .kermrc

But, "whatever" changes whenever I log in. Understand? I want something that
will know what line I'm using...

I found that on the C-kermit protocol we use, (from '89) /dev/tty is always
default at 1200 bps. I want to be able to "set line /dev/whatever" whenever I
start C-kermit because I'm not always using the same tty.

That is irrelevant. All I/O through /dev/tty goes as whatever speed you
logged in as. If you do not use "set line ...", then the speed reported
by "show com" is not applicable.

Communications Parameters:
Line: /dev/tty, speed: 9600, mode: remote, modem: none
Parity: none, duplex: full, flow: xon/xoff, handshake: none
In reality, C-kermit should say "speed: not-applicable" since this is an
rlogin session and the effective baud rate is around 1 million bits per
second.

Why? It won't make C-kermit run any faster. It already runs at the full
trasfer rate that the terminal driver is already using, even if C-kermit
is a bit confused and reports 1200 baud by mistake.
In summary, C-kermit reports a bogus number for the speed if no "set line"
command has been issued. Anyone who believes that number or tries to change
it is confused. The speed for /dev/tty is totally irrelevent for login
sessions that came in on TCP/IP, X.25, or anything else that uses the
pty interface to UNIX.
