The cu
program also supports several variables. They may be
listed with the `~v' command, and set with the `~s' or
`~!' commands.
- `escape'
-
The escape character. The default is ~ (tilde).
- `delay'
-
If this variable is true,
cu
will delay for a second, after
recognizing the escape character, before printing the name of the local
system. The default is true.
- `eol'
-
The list of characters which are considered to finish a line. The
escape character is only recognized after one of these is seen. The
default is carriage return, ^U, ^C, ^O,
^D, ^S, ^Q, ^R.
- `binary'
-
Whether to transfer binary data when sending a file. If this is false,
then newlines in the file being sent are converted to carriage returns.
The default is false.
- `binary-prefix'
-
A string used before sending a binary character in a file transfer, if
the `binary' variable is true. The default is `^V'.
- `echo-check'
-
Whether to check file transfers by examining what the remote system
echoes back. This probably doesn't work very well. The default is
false.
- `echonl'
-
The character to look for after sending each line in a file. The
default is carriage return.
- `timeout'
-
The timeout to use, in seconds, when looking for a character, either
when doing echo checking or when looking for the `echonl'
character. The default is 30.
- `kill'
-
The character to use delete a line if the echo check fails. The default
is ^U.
- `resend'
-
The number of times to resend a line if the echo check continues to
fail. The default is 10.
- `eofwrite'
-
The string to write after sending a file with the `~>' command.
The default is `^D'.
- `eofread'
-
The string to look for when receiving a file with the ` ~<'
command. The default is `$', which is intended to be a typical
shell prompt.
- `verbose'
-
Whether to print accumulated information during a file transfer. The
default is true.
