Appendix C: Non-Ascii Characters For Login Scripts; Use Of ^Char; Carriage Return And Line Feed - 3Com III Handbook

Appendix C
Non-ASCII Characters for Login
Scripts
The following information enables you to create custom login scripts
that require non-ASCII characters. It is provided for advanced users
who understand the use and requirements of such characters in a
custom login script.

Use of ^char

You may use the caret ( ^ ) to transmit ASCII command characters. If
you send ^char, and the ASCII value of char is between @ and _, then
the character is automatically translated to a single-byte value
between 0 and 31. For example, ^M is converted to a carriage return.
If char is a value between a and z, then the character sequence is
translated to a single-byte value between 1 and 26. If char is any other
value, then the character sequence is not subject to any special
processing.
For example, the string "Joe^M" transmits Joe, followed by a carriage
return.

Carriage Return and Line Feed

You may include carriage return and line feed commands as part of
the login script, when entered in the following format:
<cr>
<lf>
For example, the string "waitfor Joe<cr><lf>" waits to receive Joe
followed by a carriage return and line feed from the remote computer
before executing the next command in the script.
