Using a Command Line
To start WyseTerm, type the following in any command line:
- home\htelnet /t | /r @settings.hts host port# /s script.ebx
where:
home |
is your Home directory. |
/t |
an optional setting that specifies the Telnet protocol. This is the default protocol if you do not specify another one. |
/r |
an optional setting which specifies the Rlogin protocol. |
@settings.hts |
specifies that you want to use the settings contained in the Telnet Settings file settings.hts. The file specification should include the complete path to the file (for example, c:\user\sparc.hts). If you do not specify a file extension, WyseTerm automatically assigns the .hts extension. |
Host |
is the name or IP address of the host to which you want to connect. |
Port# |
if you specify a host, you can also specify the port# (in decimal value) for the host to which you want to connect. If you do not specify a port# or a settings.hts file on the command line, WyseTerm uses the default port number of 23. |
/s script.ebx |
is the name of a Hummingbird Basic script file. |
Examples
"c:\ home directory\htelnet @vt220.hts sparc 23 /s login.ebx" |
If the path includes a directory name that includes a space, enclose the path with quotation marks. You must also include the .exe extension to htelnet. For example,
"c:\Program Files\ home directory\htelnet.exe" @"c:\ USER\ |
