MDOS GOLD V7.22 Release 17 (Production date of 02/09/04)

New features in this release include:

1. Get and Put commands were added to TRANSIT, and CCITERM was enhanced to support both to provide easier file transfers.Valid entries are:  a) P or PUT to send a file from the local TRANSIT computer to a remote CCITERM computer (see EXAMPLE A below);  and b) G or GET to receive a file from the remote computer and store it on the local computer (see EXAMPLE B below). Example A If connected via CCITERM, receive the file update.xxx from the C:\updates\customer.001 subdirectory  of the remote CCITERM computer and store it as file update.exe in the C:\temp\update  subdirectory on the local TRANSIT computer. The syntax for this would be:C>TRANSIT GET c:\updates\customer.001\update.xxx c:\temp\update.exe. Example B: If connected via CCITERM, send the file   infobufr.bin from the C:\ subdirectory of the local TRANSIT computer and store it as file infobufr.bin on the E: drive in the remote CCITERM computer. The syntax for this would be:  C>TRANSIT PUT c:\infobufr.bin e:
