              CRLF Translation
              Delay after each character
              Delay after each line.

These parameters apply only to Uploading. When downloading, Scripta
accepts lines of ASCII text at whatever speed they happen to be
sent by the remote system. Such lines may be terminated either by
CR (Carriage Return) or by LF (Line Feed) or by a CRLF character
pair. Whatever the format of downloaded ASCII files, Scripta
converts them to CRLF format.

CRLF Translation shows how Scripta is to translate CRLF character
pairs when transmitting. CRLF Translation may take one of three
possible values:

                   CR
                   CRLF
                   Spaced

Scripta always expects the file being sent to be CRLF delimited but
will translate each CRLF character pair into whatever is specified
by CRLF Translation.

If CRLF Translation is set to CR then each CRLF pair is sent as
just CR.

If CRLF Translation is set to CRLF then each CRLF pair is sent
unchanged.

If CRLF Translation is set to Spaced then each CRLF pair is sent
as just CR but Scripta will never transmit two consecutive CR
characters. If two or more consecutive CRLF pairs are detected in
the input file then the first is transmitted as CR and the
remainder as SpaceCR. That is, a space character followed by a CR.
When all the file has been transmitted, Scripta sends an extra CR.

'Spaced' is a very useful mode for uploading ASCII files or
messages to systems which treat two consecutive CRs as end-of-file.

Normally, space lines in ASCII files are actually denoted by 'null'
lines. e.g., the text

                line 1

                line 2

would be stored on disc as

                line 1 CRLF CRLF line 2 CRLF

If this were transmitted using a CRLF Translation of CR then the
remote system would receive two consecutive CR characters after
line 1 and assume that this was end-of-file:

                line 1 CR CR line 2 CR

If this same file were transmitted using a CRLF Translation of
'Spaced', the remote system would receive

                line 1 CR space CR line 2 CR CR

Thus, the remote system deals with the file properly, the message
reads correctly when displayed and Scripta has arranged an extra
CR at end-of-file so the remote knows that it has finished.

You may have to alter the character and line pacing of ASCII uploads
if you find that Scripta is sending information too quickly or too
slowly for the remote system or for your personal liking.

For instance, with two fast modems 'talking' to each other, you can
probably get away with setting both values to zero for smallish
files. For large files (say bigger than 10Kb) some delay after each
line might help to stop buffers overflowing.
