Creating a Login Script

A login script is a series of commands, similar to an autoexec.bat
file, that automates logging in to your ISP. You can create login
script files by selecting commands from the Command pick list in
the Login Script dialog. Some of the commands from the
Command Pick list, like Send, require additional information to be
executed. Those commands have a parameter field so that you
can add the necessary data.

Note:

You can also use non-ASCII and literal characters in your

login script. Refer to Appendix A: Non-ASCII Characters for Login
