Irregular behavior while sending Text

Post by Niroj@Work » Wed Apr 07, 2010 9:46 am

Hi,

I am facing one issue while sending text to Unix based terminals like Putty, DTelnet.
While sending the data to these terminal the format of the text is changing irregularly.Sometimes it is working fine some time it is not.

For example:

SetFocus>terminal_name
Send>"TULIP_WINDOW.sh"
Press Enter
But for running several times it is printing differently.

"TULIP_WINDOW.sh"

"TULIP-WINDOW.sh"

"TULiP_WINDOW.sh"

"TULiP_windOW.sh"

"TULiP_WIND


I tried to set "Let>SK_LEGACY=1" but still it is not working..
Can anyone tell what may be the reason? Is using MacroSheduler for unix based terminal emulators like Dtelnet, KEA, SecureCRT is not a good idea?

Try slowing down the keysend rate also:

Let>SK_DELAY=50

See if that makes a difference - the keyboard buffer may be being overwhelmed and the keys may be being received in the wrong order - shift states missing etc.
