-
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-
- This is a general purpose dialer for launching other
- Windows based application that hasn't got modem access capability built in.
- The modem section support Hayes compatible modem setting. Initialisation string
- is user definable up to 30 characters long.
-
- The "Send CR after connect" is required only if your system
- requires a CR to wake it up after connection is made. Sepcify "None"
- if you don't want this option.
-
- The expect/send pairs section allows user to define their own
- host access sequence. For example for accessing Demon service here in UK
- you would fill up the expect/send pairs section as follows:
-
- Expect Send Expect send
- ------ ----- ------ -----
- 1 ogin: user name\n 3 Protocol SLIP\n
- 2 assword: yousr password\n 4 HELLO None
- 5 None None
-
- Launch Program: d:\winsock\tcpman;d:\mosaic\mosaic
- ( Note ';' is used to separate the TCPMAN and Mosaic )
-
- Once connected, the access sequence goes like this:
-
- Expect string ogin:
- Got ogin: send user name
- Expect string assword:
- Got assword: send password
- Expect string Protocol
- Got Protocol send SLIP
- Expect string HELLO
- Got HELLO send nothing
- Ignore sequence 5
- Launch application program.
-
-
- If None is specified in any of the expect coloumns, the dialer
- will skip that expect/send pair. Specify "None" in send column
- tells dialer to send nothing back.
-
- Note:
- Unused pairs must be filled in with "None" to stop dialer
- from hanging.
-
- Do not quit the dialer while your application is running.
- Use hangup to disconnect once you have closed your application.
-
- There is no need to specify AT&D0 to stop the DTR from hanging
- up your modem. Once the connection is made, the dialer will release
- control of the comm port.
-
- The launch program field in the setup dialog box user must specify
- the full path of his or her application program to be launched unless the
- program is in the PATH. Th minimized checked bx allows user to specify
- whether the program is to be launched in minimized or full window.
