    I am using the following batch file:

    start realterm half=1 scanports=0

    start realterm FIRST sendstr=12345

    start realterm FIRST QUIT

    However, I always get multiple instances (3) of Realterm opening.  The first two instances close but the last instance remains open.  Not sure what I'm doing wrong.

    Realterm: 2.0.0.61
    XP (fully patched)

      Hi,

      I have the same problem. I also have a hunch that this issues is addressed  in the Realterm Batch Demo file, rtdemo.bat. I found this file on the Latest Version website, of the F1 help file.

      So, I downloaded rtdemo.bat and started to study it. According to the demo I also need a sleep command and make sure that I wait
      before I send the FIRST command to Realterm. So, I have also downloaded a sleep.com from the internet and did put it into the same directory as rtdemo.bat. In fact, I added a Batch_Files directory to the examples directory created by the Realterm installation program.

      Now if I double click on rtdemo.bat it starts up Realterm. However, it does not send the string after the FIRST command to Realterm. In other words, it ignores the FIRST command.  I should also mention that this double clicking opens up a Command window which confirms that the  Windows XP comands in the rtdemo.bat file are indeed transmitted to Windows XP.

      I just do not know where to look for the solution. I am using  the latest version of Realterm,  Version 2.0.0.66. Since rtdemo.bat dates back to 2005, may be I should be using an earlier version of Realterm?

      I certainly would appreciate learning about fellow Realterm users experiences with rtdemo.bat.
