Hello,
I have a Pico difficulty. I am uploading text files from my pc, over the
phone, to our mainframe at school. The editor on the mainfram is Pico.
Sometimes, when I am in a document, I use the ascii upload feature of my
communication program to send up a small file to use in my document that I
am editing with Pico.
Here is my problem. Pico wants to automatically justify everything that
comes in, which is irritating if you are sending a file pre-formatted to
your specifications. The ^U is useless, because you are prompted for it
after each line, and, in a ascii file upload, it is impossible to respond
after each line.
Any suggestions on how I can accomplish this ascii transfer into Pico,
without Pico justifying everything that comes in?
response via email will be greatly appreciated!
Thanks in advance,
Jeff
