File Uploading
--------------
Uploading a file to ^nodetitle is very simple with ^variantname. The basic
format is
<.E>nter [protocol specifier] <F>ile
The protocol specifier is optional, but if you don't specify one, it will
default to Xmodem.
^variantname supports the following protocols internally for uploading:
<X>modem, <Y>modem (SINGLE FILE mode), and <W>xmodem.
Additionally, ^nodetitle has the following protocols available for upload
usage as external drivers:
^ulprotocols
To use any of these protocols for an upload, simply type their letter where
"protocol specifier" was mentioned before. For example, to upload a file
to the system using Ymodem, you'd type
<.E>nter <Y>modem <F>ile
The system will prompt for a name. If the file already exists, you won't
be allowed to upload the file.
You are not finished with your upload
activity when the file has been transferred. First, ^variantname may ask you if
you want a file integrity check performed on the file if its extension (don't
worry if you don't understand this) is ARC, ZIP, ZOO, or LZH. You can decline
if you wish, of course. If the integrity check fails, you will be asked if
the upload should be aborted.
If no check was performed, or if it was successful, or if you didn't abort
the upload process because of a failure, you will then be asked to add a file
comment to your upload. ^variantname will simply dump you into the message
editor, thus placing you in a friendly, familiar environment for composing a
file comment which will enlighten your fellow users as to your file's contents
and usage. Please feel free to speak at length if necessary, the limit on
the size of a file comment is quite large.
Batch uploads (that is, many files at a time) are prohibited.
