25: .SH DESCRIPTION
26: .I Macput
27: sends a file to a Macintosh running MacTerminal.
28: The File Transfer settings should specify the "Modem7"
29: transfer method and a "MacTerminal" remote system.
30: This program is designed for use with the 0.5 Beta and newer
31: versions of MacTerminal, but includes a compatibility option for the
32: older -0.15X Almost-Alpha version.
33: .PP
34: To use this program, log into the unix system using MacTerminal,
35: and run macput specifying the desired options and one file to be sent.
36: If MacTerminal is properly configured, it will recognize that a file
37: is arriving on the serial line and put up an indicator showing how
38: much of the file has been sent.
39: Several Control-X's may be used to force macput
40: to give up if the transfer fails.
41: .PP
42: If none of the
43: .B \-rdu
44: flags are specified,
45: .I macput
46: sends three files to the mac:
47: .IB file .info ,
48: .IB file .data ,
49: and
50: .IB file .rsrc .
51: This is useful for returning files to the mac which were stored
52: using macget.
53: .PP
54: The
55: .B \-r
56: flag specifies
57: .I resource
58: mode.
59: Either
60: .IB file .rsrc
61: or
62: .I file
63: will be sent to the Mac, along with a forged
64: .B .info
65: file and an empty
66: .B .data
67: file.
68: The file sent becomes the resource fork of the Mac file.
69: .PP
70: The
71: .B \-d
72: flag specifies
73: .I data
74: mode.
75: Either
76: .IB file .data
77: ,
78: .IB file .text
79: or
80: .I file
81: will be sent to the Mac, along with a forged
82: .B .info
83: file and an empty
84: .B .rsrc
85: file.
86: The file sent becomes the data fork of the Mac file.
87: .PP
88: The
89: .B \-u
90: flag requests
91: .I unix
92: mode, which is the same as
93: .I data
94: mode except unix newline characters are converted
95: into carriage returns.
96: Human-readable unix text files sent to the Mac using this option
97: will be compatible with applications which expect "text only" files.
98: .PP
99: The
100: .B \-o
101: flag specifies "old" (version -0.15X) MacTerminal compatibility mode.
102: You must manually disable XON/XOFF flow control in this version to
103: perform file transfer; this is done automatically in the newer versions.
104: .PP
105: The remaining options serve to override the default
106: file type, author, and file name to be used on the Mac.
107: The default type and author for
108: .I resource
109: mode are "APPL" and "CCOM".
110: .I data
111: mode defaults are "TEXT", "????", and
112: .I unix
113: mode defaults are "TEXT" and "MACA".
114: .SH SEE ALSO
115: macget(local)
116: .SH BUGS
117: Doesn't work over flow controlled communication lines,
118: or when using rlogin.
119: .PP
120: Doesn't set the bundle bit on resource files,
121: to incorporate any icons into the Desk Top.
122: Use setfile to set the bundle bit.
123: .SH FEATURES
124: Properly initializes the Creation Date.
