- AT-FILE FORMAT [DUAL MODE]
-
- NAME AT FILE FORMAT - This document describes the at-
- commands file format
-
- SYNTAX
-
- # comment line
- ; comment line
- CONTINUE
- QUIT
- BREAK
- time command
- +time command
-
- USAGE
-
- At can be given its arguments in a file. You can comment
- out lines by preceding them with either # or ;-
- characters. This is an easy way to temporarily disable
- some commands.
-
- The CONTINUE-command is most useful at the end of the
- file. When this command is read, the file is started
- again from the beginning. You can use it situations where
- the machine is not shut down for the night and you want
- to run some commands every day.
-
- When the QUIT or BREAK keywords are recognized, the file
- is immediately closed and the at-command stopped.
-
- The file formats are identical to the at-command. Two
- time formats are supported. The first list the absolute
- time in hh:mm:ss -format, where hh=hour, mm=minute,
- ss=second. The time is parsed from left to right. That is
- a two part time represents hh:mm and a one part time
- represents hours only.
-
- The second format is given relative to the current time.
- This format is identical to the first format, except that
- it starts with a plus (+).
