    I have just received an update to ATalk III, and am using the program
for the first time in several months.  (I have been using VLT and JRComm.)

    My question is whether there is a way from an AREXX macro started from
a shell--as opposed to from within Atalk--to direct Atalk to send (upload)
a file by passing in a variable which contains the filename.  Right now I
am doing something like this:

do j = 1 to i

address ATK
'wait "command"'
'reply "U" file.j "^M"'
'send' file.j
'wait "?"'
'reply comment.j "^M"

address

end

file. contains a list of files and comment. contains a list of comments.

    Any suggestions on how to do this?

    I also would very much like to be able to send multiple files by
selecting them from the filerequestor.  (This has nothing to do with my
AREXX question.)  Neither Atalk III or VLT allow more than one file to be
selected at a time for uploading.  JRComm does allow multiple selections,
which is probably why I had been using it.  Marco?
