REP packets don't       KW> make it to the other end.              I did some poking around and found out that the Windows command line FTP can       take a script file. I have a Windows batch file that runs a ftp session to       download a QWK packet, then fires up DOSBOX or vDOS. Both have MM in their       autoexec.txt files, so it goes straight into the emulator. The last step in the       batch file will upload the .REP packet. we'll see how it goes later today.       --- SBBSecho 3.06-Win32        * Origin: http://realitycheckbbs.org | tomorrow's retro tech (1:218/700)       SEEN-BY: 15/0 2 19/36 20/4609 34/999 57/0 90/1 104/57 116/18 120/331       SEEN-BY: 123/140 1970 128/2 153/250 7715 218/700 220/60 222/2 226/17       SEEN-BY: 226/100 229/107 426 728 230/150 152 240/1120 5832 249/1 206       SEEN-BY: 249/317 400 250/1 261/38 100 266/512 267/155 800 275/100       SEEN-BY: 282/1031 1056 291/1 111 317/2 3 320/219 322/757 340/400 342/13       SEEN-BY: 342/200 393/68 396/45 633/280 712/132 848 770/0 1 10 100       SEEN-BY: 770/340 772/0 1 500 801/161 189 2320/105 3634/12 5020/1042       PATH: 218/700 261/38 712/848 770/1 393/68 229/426           |
