Areex script for TERM
I'm trying to write a script for term. What I want to do is tell term to
dial a number then from within the script check to see if termm is online
,or if it hangs up store the result code and write it to a file.
My overall aim is to create a script that will dial all the numbers in a
BBs list to see if they are still valid. Thus the script would dial the
numbers if it got a connect hangup and write the details to a file if it
got a voice also write the details, all with the appropriate result codes.
Then i could list the script and ring all the voice code ones to see if a
BBs operates at that number any more.
Ok thats what I'm trying to do ,my problem is this when I tell Term to
dial a number eg Dial 1111-22333 Term waits for the script to end before
dialing. eg if I want to output something to the screen further down the
script like Hello Mark Term does this first. The script doesn't seem to be
running at the same time as Term is dialing. My other problem is I can't
work out how to store the Modem result codes eg Busy, Voice, Connect etc.
Sorry this is a bit long winded, but any help would be much appreciated.
