Converse Mode
The
data
mode
used
often
for
ordinary
keyboard
conversation
is Converse
Mode. In Converse
Mode, the send-packet
charac-
ter
causes
the
input
to
be
packetized
for
transmission.
Ifyou
type
a
full
packet-length
of
characters
without
typing
the
send-packet
character,
your
input
will
be
packetized
and
transmitted
anyway.The
default
send-packet
character
is
<CR>
,
but
you
can
specify
any
character
with
the
command
SEndpac.
You
may
choose
to
have
the
send-packet
character
transmitted
in
the
packet.
If
the
send-packet
character
is
<CR>
it
is
natural
to
include
it
in
the
packet
as
part
of
the
text
as
well
as
interpreting
it
as
a
command.
This
is
accomplished
by
setting
CR
ON.
Ifyou
use
another
character
to
force
packet
transmission,
you
may
set
CR
OFF
and
inhibit
transmission
of
the
send-packet
character.
If
you
set
the
send-packet
character
to
something
other
than
<CR>
,
you
can
cancel
packets
of
more
than
one
line
with
the
cancel-packet
character,
which
is
set
with
the
command
CANPac.
Single-line
packets
can
be
canceled
with
either
the
cancel-line
character
or
the
cancel-packet
character.

following
