I am wanting to write a script for Atalk or VLT. I want the Rexx script to send commands to Atlk (or vlt) and then get responses back. I can send commands to Atalk, and I think I know how to send rex commands from Atalk, but here is the prob: How do I make Atalk send a mesg to the rexx script in progress to do something? Example, The script tells Atalk to "DIAL xxx-xxx" it then tells Atalk to "WAIT for 'Conect'" or whatever and then log that it made a connection before continuing. This way I could make it log on, check my mail, read news, or whatever. And, NO I don't wont to just buffer the whole thing!!! Duane
