Agreed, the first step is to create the file so there are as many DAT files as
necessary and only one or two OVER files. Once you've done that, copied all of
the records over to the new file and it remains with only one or two OVER
files, THEN do some analytics to establish the SPLIT/MERGE and t

My opinion is to stripe all your data over as many drives as possible.
Regarding mirroring, I would suggest a third mirror.
The third mirror can be broken anytime during the day and used for
backup, then 're-sync'd.'

Thank you all for your help, however this subroutine from 2005 actually

I know this is not a U2 question, but I am trying to push a file from

For those of you who are Dos savvy, what is the Dos environment variable

I would agree with the FT subroutines. Although compared to ftp, they
are EXTREMELY slow and ineffective for my use on large files, even the
non-verifying version.
As to why U2 does not 'support' it directly, it is a function that is
specific to Accuterm's terminal emulator. It would be impractic
Typically sending a text to your cell phone is just as easy as sending

For example, to send a text to my Verizon cell phone, the email address

You just need to know what your cell provider's standard is.

Given any DIR type file, as defined in the VOC file.
When I read a 'record' from that type of file, which is of course
actually a file in a directory in Unix, how may I establish what the

It is probably the key, ascii 27. This syntax usually is
telling a terminal (emulator) or printer to do something special.
Each device has its own 'escape sequence' language, as such, that tells
it to do different things. The sequence of characters that follow the

What elements of data do you keep in this file?
I have the same thing in mine and I keep the last 1,000 executions. Not
