W Set/Change Prompt Wait Character
This command affects
TERMINAL
operation in the transmit from
RAM
mode
and during auto sign-on. It does not affect operation in the interactive
terminal mode.
The prompt wait feature allows you to use the high-speed transmit from
RAM
mode - even when the host program can only accept one line at a time.
Typically, the host program sends you a prompt such as a question mark or
colon when it is ready for the next line. In the interactive keyboard mode, you
would simply wait until this prompt is displayed; the prompt wait feature
makes
TERMINAL
do the same thing while in the transmit from
RAM
mode.
When the feature is on,
TERMINAL
will send one line at a time, and wait for a
prompt character from the host program before sending each line. (A line is
defined as a string of characters terminated by a carriage return X'OD'.)
You can define the prompt wait character as any keyboard character from
X'20' to X'7F'.
Leave the prompt wait feature off when the host program is simply storing
characters as received, and is not sending a ready-for-next-line prompt.
TERMINAL
will transmit text from
RAM
in a continuous stream.
