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: s Sends or receives a carriage return s Sends or receives a line feed For example, the string "waitfor Joe" waits to receive Joe followed by a carriage return and line feed from the remote computer before executing the next command in the script. 187
