10.6.1 Capturing MSTTERM Interactions to a Text File
1.
The Capture Text... submenu contains the Select File, Pause, Resume, and Stop
Capture commands. Initially, only the Select File command is active and the others are
unavailable. When you first initialize the MSTTERM program, text is not captured to a file.
Clicking Transfer → Capture Text → Select File opens the Select a text file to capture to
2.
box, allowing you to create a new text file or select a current one.
3.
The File name and Files of type boxes display the file name "capture.txt". Enter a new
name or select an existing one and then click Open. If you enter a new file name, the
program creates that file with empty contents until it receives some text. If you select an
existing file, the text captured to that file is appended to the current contents.
When the operation begins, the Status bar displays "Capturing", and the Pause and Stop
Capture commands become available; the Select File and Resume commands become
unavailable. During the capture, all characters received are saved to the capture file, and all
locally echoed transmitted characters are saved as well. If local echo is off, then transmitted
characters are not saved to the capture file. If filtering is on, then the filtered and displayed
characters are saved to the text file.
