I have an A3000 at home, and a Macintosh Quadra 840av at work. What I want to do is download my JPEG's from home to work. Does any one have any suggestions to make this possible? The guy at the computer store here in Denver recomended I write a script for Term, but I know nothing about writing scripts. Does any have a script that will do this. I'm open to any suggestions.

Steve, It's quite simple for you to do it manually (so long as you have somebody at each end <g>). On both machines, launch the comms software. Activate auto answer on one (say your Amiga), then with the Mac, dial your home number, when the Amiga answers and the modems have negotiated their speeds etc, get the person on the Amiga to Upload the first JPEG file whilst the Mac user chooses DOWNLOAD, making sure you both use the same protocol; ZMODEM or CIS B+ etc. Okay, you'll have to repeat the uploading and downloading manually until all the files have been transfered, but if you know nothing about writing scripts, then this is obviously quicker 🙂 Regards Kevin Flying AutoPilot from Surry in the UK

well, if you just leave your computer at home on with a term program running set z-modem to auto download, go to work and call home (modem at home with auto answer on) then download the files. Unless you use Silent Answer or a switch box of some sort anyone else calling your house will get an earfull so… Alex
