Novaterm 9.6 User's Guide

If you are using a batch transfer protocol, Novaterm instead presents
you with a file selection screen. (When Novaterm asks you for a
Pattern match, enter any wildcard that will display a subset of files
from the directory, or leave the entry blank to display all files.) In the
left-hand column, Novaterm lists files from the disk directory. As you
select files by highlighting them and pressing RETURN, Novaterm lists
the selected files in the right-hand column. Pressing F7 starts the
upload.

Novaterm will then start sending signals to the other computer. The
transfer should begin within several seconds. (If nothing happens
after about 15 seconds, hold down the C= key to abort the transfer and
try to find out what went wrong.)

At any time during the transfer, hold down the C= (logo) key to abort.
You may have to hold it for a couple of seconds before Novaterm gets
to a point where it can abort the transfer smoothly.

3.4.7 Sending and receiving summarized

The steps you must take to send files are summarized below:

For single-file protocols (Xmodem-1k, Xmodem, WXmodem,
Punter):
  1. Make sure you are set to the same protocol as the BBS or on-line service
  2. Select the  menu item or command on the BBS for "Upload file" or "Send file".
  3. Tell the BBS the name of the file you want to upload.
  4. Follow any instructions given by the BBS until it says it is ready to receive the file.
  5. Then, press C= U from terminal mode.
  6. Type in the name of the file as it appears on your disk.
  7. At this point the screen should clear and file information displayed. The transfer should begin after a few seconds.
For batch transfer protocols (Zmodem, Ymodem batch, Kermit,
Multi-Punter):

1. Follow the first five steps above. You may not have to tell the
BBS or on-line service the names of the files you are going to
upload.
2. Select the names of the files you want to upload, either by typing
them in or by selecting them from the directory list. (See section
5.4, Multiple file scratch for a description of the file selection
