Also please be kind and use logout to finish your session so another person can login. Do not just disconnect because that will hang the telnet daemon. Hi, Very nice to have just been logging in on a MSX computer. I was trying to write a README file to tell everyone to edit addr.txt and make it an addressbook, but unfortunately ed seemed to hang, so I had to disconnect :-( Does telnetd really hang, or does it just wait for a timeout? Anyway, I had some problems. I usually use ``cat file'' to create simple files. But that didn't work with a ``file: file not found'' error. After touching it, it was still not found. So I tried ed, but that didn't quite work as I hoped (I didn't really expect anything, I just read the manpage on how it worked) These are just some points which I think should be fixed. But I want to say again this is very great, it feels like a real (be it a bit slow) unix machine (even more because it's MSX and unices have something with names ending on X ;-) ) One remark about this reply concerning LF/CRLF: The telnet standard specifies LF should be used as newline. If your client cannot handle that, then you have a buggy client ;-) bye, shevek -- For info, see http://www.stack.nl/~wynke/MSX/listinfo.html

If you specify a file(s) it will use the file(s) as its input, otherwise it will simply use (just as every other 'good' unix program) the std-in. In an interactive shell this means that cat will read the keyboard and out it to it's std-out. If std-out is redirected to a file using the '' rederection command, you can use cat filename to directly type letters into a file David -- For info, see http://www.stack.nl/~wynke/MSX/listinfo.html
Re: UZIX telnet experiment
Hi, folks. Since now I have a power beta tester for UZIX, Tristan, and now that all of you know that UZIX rulez a lot, I feel compelled to make things better on UZIX. I'll check carefully the bugs reported about telnet daemon and try to fix them. Most of them are caused because I didn't test telnetd under Windows, but only under Linux, and it worked fine (no, Shevek, I didn't test ed or cat). These are just some points which I think should be fixed. But I want to say again this is very great, it feels like a real (be it a bit slow) unix machine (even more because it's MSX and unices have something with names ending on X ;-) ) If Tristan had a TR and 56kbps serial connection, things would be faster. But I don't complain. It's great to log into Omega's MSX, far away thousands of miles from my home. :) Adriano Camargo Rodrigues da Cunha ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) Diretor Executivo - AL Software http://www.alsoftware.com.br http://www.alsoftware.com.br/adrianpage -- For info, see http://www.stack.nl/~wynke/MSX/listinfo.html

Hi, ed seems to give problems, indeed (I would prefer vi anyway...), but cat worked fine. I catted a text file (how was that made anyway?) from ~guest.

The problem seemed to be the to redirect the output, so that should be in the shell. On the console, ed, tee or echo work fine to create a textfile. using cat file to create a textfile should in theory work but SASH doesnt support it yet.. On the telnet connection, ed, tee and echo have problems. Echo doesnt work because the redirection to a file isnt handled correctly somehow. Tee doesnt work because it doesnt receive the ctrl-d to close the file. Maybe Adriano can have a look at that.. Greetings P.S. Bas: UZIX telnetd can't handle termination of processes upon disconnect very well yet, it seems. So if you disconnect, your ed session will just wait forever, and keep the telnetd busy.
