Sorry if this is the wrong newsgroup.  I have a specific question
regarding ProComm and its command file facilities.

I am trying to perform some unattended file transfers using ProComm
and its command language facility. Currently, I have ProComm starting
up the command file from the MS-DOS prompt (via /F) and this works
fine.  (The command file logs into the remote machine, transfers the
files, and then logs out).  However, I would like ProComm to exit once
it has completed executing commands from the command file.  Currently,
after it finishes with the command file, it drops me into "terminal
mode".  A simple AlT-X + Y kicks me out to the DOS prompt, but I would
prefer to have this happen automatically.  Nothing in the command
language seems allow me to force an exit from ProComm.

Is there a way to do this?

Please respond directly as I don't read this group.

Thanks
Brian
