Steve,
Doesn't TERM use XPR protocols? Look in Term configuration menus for a CIS B
XPR protocol and use that for downloading from CIS.
To download a file from a CIS forum, from the library prompt (Lib!) type:
DOW Lib:<n> <filename> PROTO:B
To look for files to download, from the library prompt (Lib!) type:
BRO Lib:(n or ALL) [key:<keyword>]
To get to the library prompt from the Forum prompt (FORUM!) type:
LIB
Once you have downloading working for you, download the demo version of
Autopilot (AP.LHA and APDOCS.LHA) from library 9 of the AmigaVendor Forum (GO
AMIGAV).
AP makes accessing stuff on CIS via the Amiga point and click easy… it's also
the most efficicent way to access CIS and keep catalogs of files, exchange
messages and mail, etc. so it saves you a ton of connect time ($$).
