Hint: When the Holding Buffer is OPEN but full, Pacterm will automatically
CLOSE it if there is an attempt to add any more data to it. This means that once it
is full, the Holding Buffer will not be able to accept any more data during the
current session until it is cleared or saved.
When the Holding Buffer is OPEN, the term BUFF appears on the Status Line of
the Terminal Screen.
ALT+C = Holding Buffer: CLEAR
Press the ALT+C key combination to CLEAR (delete) the current contents of the
Holding Buffer, whether it is currently open or closed.
Caution: This command takes effect immediately and it cannot be undone, so be
sure you want to CLEAR the Holding Buffer before you use this command.
F2 = Holding Buffer: SAVE and CLEAR
Press F2 to SAVE the current contents of the Holding Buffer to a file in the cur-
rent directory (or to the current directory of a designated drive, if you include a
drive name with the file) and then automatically CLEAR the Holding Buffer.
You will be asked to supply a name for the file, using the standard DOS file name
conventions, and press ENTER to initiate the SAVE operation.
You may also include a drive name, along with the file name, to save the file in
the current directory on a drive other than the current drive. The drive name is in
-
cluded in the 14 characters available for the name (e.g., add “C:” to the beginning
of the file name to store the file in the current directory of drive C).
