I confess to doing very little programming on the PC, hence have not pursued
this very much, although we did have quite a little talk with our IBMer
yesterday & plan to pursue at least a doc fix.  Level 2 told me to try
EHLAPI if I (my users) wanted to automate file transfer (as if I have the
time to tackle yet *another* project (-: ).  We were more interested in IBM
adding a user-settable delay before the SEND/RECEIVE commands think they are
finished.  I may give your suggestion a try, though.
