#CIS messages
3 messages in this thread
I access CServe using Procomm +. Is there any way that I can either:
1) Download all of the messages in the 3DS area for offline reading?
or
2) Continuously scroll through all of the messages so that I can capture
them to a Log file for offline reading without having to individually read
each message?
My CServe documentation is several years old and any ideas would be
helpful.
Thanks, Mark Chamberso
Mark,
Just open a capture buffer when you enter the forum and then type the
following command……..REA THR NEW (or RT N) to read all the new messages
for you in thread order. When you hit the end, just close your capture
buffer.
An easier way would be to get a comm program specifically designed for CIS.
The two most popular for command line DOS are ATO (available from the
IBMCOM forum, Library 1, and a Freeware product) or TAPCIS (available from
the TAPCIS forum, Library 1, and a Shareware product). Either of these
programs will maximize your on line usage, and will tend to save you some
money. In truth though, all that will happen is that you will get more
participation for your dollar…….<grin>.
Thanks, I'll look into your suggestions. -Mark
