Help unix specialists, I am working on an SGI workstation. I am accessing
the net by dialing via modem to a remote site. I am dialing to this
remote site from my host workstation by using the "cu" command.
So far so good. Now I want to download a file from my remote site to my
host site using the cu command "take". When I execute the "take" command,
trying to download I get the following message error:
~[sg1]%take README1 call tilda(%take README1) call _dopercen("take
README1") stty -echo;if test -r README1; then (echo '~>':README1;cat
README1;echo '~>'); else echo cant\'t open: README1; fi;stty echo Badly
placed ()'s.
As you can see, I get this message about badly placed ()'s? what does
this mean?
For your information also, I have been able to use the cu command "put"
to place a file from my host site onto my net remote site without problems.
Can any of you help me solve this problem? I would greatly appreciate a
response, or suggestions on what other download software I need to aquire
for the SGI workstation.
Thanks Kindly:)
