Hi there. For almost 2 years now, I have been using BaudBandit by Progressive Peripherals for my Telecom prog. I have never been able to get the Script Pair section for fast, worry free log-on. I'm obviously not programming it correctly. The problem may be the initial Carriage Return that CIS expects when you log on – there's no prompt for the Baudbandit to respond with an effect. AAny tips? Jonathan

Jonathan: I have been using BaudBandit's SCRIPT COMMANDS for a bout two years myself. I find "Worry Free" Log-On works too. CompuServe I believe is looking for a ^C (that is a control C) to be sent after a CONNECT is made. Here what the SCRIPT COMMAND looks like in my phone book entry for CompuServe. All I can tell you is, "It Works For Me". PHONE BOOK ENTRY FOR NORMAL COMPUSERVE CONNECT: {CONNECT=\w\w\w\w^C}{ID:=71610,3712\r}{Password:=YOUR+PASSWORD\r} — Gary Lucas —

Thanks. Things are improving – CIS is now recognizing my ID and password, but the initial logon is still not working. I can't seem to get a CTRL-C into the script pair – whenever I hold down control and then press C, I get a vertically oriented narrow rectangle instead. Anyy ideaa what I'm doing wrong? J.

Instead of actually pressing CTRL-C in your script, try using '^C' instead. Not sure if the first character comes through OK, but it is the caret (Shift 6) character before the C. Many Terminal programs use this to indicate the Control key being pressed. John (in beautiful downtown Walla Walla) – via Whap!

Thanks, John. I'll try the caret. Even if my terminal program doesn't improve, maybe my eyesight will. J

Jonathan, Type in the example SCRIPT COMMAND below, it includes a CRTL-C (^C) and your log-on will work. Except use your correct Password… {CONNECT=\w\w\w\w^C}{ID:=71610,3712\r}{Password:=YOUR+PASSWORD\r\w} | | CRTL-C above is a ^C – a SHIFT KEY plus the 6 key gives you a ^ ENJOY! — Gary Lucas —

Gary— thanks. Everything seems to be working OK now. This time, I managed to log-on effortlessly. At last, a true part of the information age! J.

Jonathan, you've probably had many replies by now but here are my script pairs. Hope this is of help. {2400=\w\w\r}{Host Name:=cis\r}{UserID:=100014,3555\r}{Password:=****\r} Joe Joe Wylot (UK) – via Whap!

Thanks, J. I've sorted out my problem, kinda. Thanks for the help. j.
