Capture script ?

[chief39]

I need procomm to capture the screen text everytime there is a dial in connection. So I need capture to turn on when connection in made and turn off when dissconnected so file will save. I have tryed may scripts but can't seem to get one to turn capture on.

You can use something like this in your script:

when $CARRIER call check_carrier

while 1
yield
endwhile

The when command would call the procedure check carrier whenever the value of $CARRIER changes. This procedure would look something like this:

proc check_carrier
if $CARRIER == 1
capture on
elseif $CAPTURE != 0
capture off
exit
endif
endproc

This procedure will open your capture file whenever $CARRIER changes to 1 (indicating an open connection) and will close any open capture file when $CARRIER indicates there is no longer a connection. Hopefully that gives you some ideas to use in your script.
