How to use SER: in AmigaDOS to receive data?

[iamaboringperson]

im not sure id bother doing it that way... but wouldnt AUX: be better?

[iamaboringperson]

are you using the copy command?
like:
copy ser: filename

i remember trying to do that kind of thing years ago, and i never got anywhere so i gave up

let us know if you work out a perfect solution...

i think one problem i used to find is that there was no way to send a break character accross

i remember having to reset my amigas over and over...

Do you know what the break-character is?


/Patrik

actually i meant the EOF char
which for the amiga is ctrl-\
also ctrl-z is ment to be end of file
but you could also try: ctrl-c,d,e, or f - the break chars


remember also the 'break' command
