Command-line parameters:
sendinmc [-E] [-T] [-F] [-p Port] [-C cnffile] [TO: address] ["message"] [-M messfile]
Parameter | Meaning |
|---|---|
[-E] | Parameter for sending an e-mail. If the parameter [-C cnffile] is not defined, the default configuration file cnfmail.txt is automatically being searched in the working directory. * |
[-T] | Parameter for sending a message to a terminal. If the parameter [-C cnffile] is not defined, the default configuration file cnfterm.txt is automatically being searched in the working directory. * |
[-F] | Parameter for sending a fax message. If the parameter [-C cnffile] is not defined, the default configuration file cnffax.txt is automatically being searched in the working directory. * |
[-p Port] | Serial port, to which the INMARSAT-C is connected. If the parameter is not defined, the COM1 port will be used. |
[-C cnffile] | Configuration file for sending data. |
[TO: address] | Address (e-mail, or several e-mails comma-separated, telephone number, fax number, terminal number). |
["message"] | Message to send (e-mail, fax, data for terminal). If a sequence \n is in the message, the sequence will be replaced by the characters CR and LF. |
[-M messfile] | Message to send is stored in the file messfile. |
* - The parameters -E, -T, or -F can't be defined, but there must be defined a configuration file using the parameter -C.
For sending a message, either the parameter message or -M messfile must be defined. Parameters are evaluated from the left to the right.
