Can WinPack's TIMEOUT be set to 60 or similar, to allow a large Yapp mail
upload to the FBB BBS? I've tried TIMEOUT 60 but it doesn't seem to work.
After the upload, the script 'hangs' & doesn't continue to unzip the mail file
on the BBS. I have to force a disconnect after several minutes of no activity,
or let the connection timeout, then run another script to unzip the file on
the BBS, which works fine.
It seems to me that TIMEOUT only works with smaller values like 10, probably
made that way for areas of high traffic.
From the WinPack help file;
===========================
TIMEOUT
By default, a script will time out if it has been waiting for an event to
occur for more than 5 minutes. However, you can change the time out period by
using the TIMEOUT key word. E.g. -
TIMEOUT 10
sets the time out to 10 minutes. You can change the time out more than once
within the same script. The time out reverts to the default of 5 minutes when
a new script is started.
===========================
The reason for doing this is that sometimes the radio path fails in bad WX, so
I have to receive forwarding from e-mail, & it would be nice to upload this,
with one click or keypress, to the BBS remotely in one session.
