PROGRAM:

NAME


vstpg, vstpp - VisioBraille file transferring

SYNOPSIS


vstpg [-ifbnd] [-s socketport] [-k keyname] [-o configname] file ...

DESCRIPTION


vstpg (resp. vstpp) gets (resp. puts) files from (resp. onto) a VisioBraille terminal.

For communicating with the terminal, you must launch brltty with the BrlNet driver, and
telling BrlNet to use the VisioBraille driver.

Before putting on the terminal, file names are truncated to 8 characters without any
extension.

Before getting from terminal, leading path and trailing extensions are removed, but put
back for local filename.

COMMAND-LINE OPTIONS


-i ask for confirmation of transfer, for each file (on the terminal)

-f don't ask for such a confirmation (default)

-b if they exists, recursively rename the old files with an added .x suffix, just like
logrotate does

-n do not keep such backup file (default)

-s socketport
use socketport as the port number instead of default for connecting to BrlNet

-k filename
use filename as key path instead of default for reading BrlNet's authentication key

-d use current directory rather than the download directory (see vbs_dir below)

-o filename
also read filename as config file

CONFIG FILE


vstpg and vstpp read a configuration file $HOME/.vstprc which contains keywords or
equalities, one per line (what follows a # is ignored).

You can ask them to also read any other file thanks to the -o option.

Here are keywords:

backup make -b option the default

nobackup
make -f option the default

and equalities:

keyname = filename
use this file instead of default, to find BrlNet's authentication key

socketport = port
use this port number, instead of default, to connect to BrlNet

vbs_ext = .ext
use .ext as an extension for downloaded files (.vis by default) this is overridden
on command line if an extension is provided in the file name

vbs_dir = path
use path instead of current directory for putting files, except when using the -d
option, or if the filename begins with '.'

RETURNED VALUE


1 syntax error on command line
2 connection with BrlNet error
3 Unix file error
4 Protocol error
16 interrupted by user

SHELL EXPANSIONS


Beware of special chars: * and . are often expanded by your shell, hence vstpp * will
probably do what you want, putting every file existing in the current directory onto the
terminal, but vstpg * may not do what you want: it will only get every file which already
exist in the current directory, skipping those you just created on your terminal ! If you
want to get every file which exist in the terminal, you should use vstpg '*' or something
similar (please read your shell manual).

The same warning applies to other special chars, such as $, ~, &,... which should be
protected by surrounding arguments by quotes (') or by using single backslashes (\) just
before them (please read your shell manual).
