- # this is an example of script to be used with the
- # popular PCBoard BBS system.
-
- # you can have as many commants as you like
- # either in a single line
- # or at the end of line containing script commands
-
- # you can also have blank lines
-
- # PCBoard is nasty, in that is gives different prompts depending
- # on whether it is the first onr second time you dial the BBS
-
- # Hence, you cannot have a successful script that uses only
- # the waitfor command.
- # For this board, the when command is very useful.
-
- # although when is not really needed for the first few prompts since
- # they are always the same, I'm going to use it anyway for illstration
-
- # here are the stataments:
-
- when "Enter Language # to use (Enter)=no change? " "^M" # comment
-
- # if you turn on color, you'll have to modify the expected
- # prompts to include the color escape codes, not a good thing.
- # better turn on color at the end of the script
-
- when "Do you want Color? Y=Yes, N or Enter = No? " "^M"
- when "Enter your first name? " "muhammad saggaf^M"
- when "Password (Dots will echo)? " "you wish!^M"
-
- # get rid of those nasty prompts that we don't know how many
- # we will get.
-
- when "(Enter)=More? " "^M"
- when "Enter = Yes? " "n^M"
-
- # this is the ultimate command we are waiting for.
- # substitute 'Chennel1' by the name of you board.
-
- waitfor "Channel 1 Command? "
-
- # once we are here, clear all outstanding when commands
-
- when
-
- # finally, turn on color.
-
- transmit "m^M"
-
- # that's it.
- # have a good time.
