The Alter Menu contains the following columns: Column NamesДЇlag that changes the value of a variableДescription of the variable that the flag affects Enter the letter a after the command prompt on either the ATE Connected or Unconnected Main Menu to view the Alter Menu. The Alter Menu displays the current settings of the changeable characteristics with the alter subcommand. To permanently change the settings affected by the alter subcommand, customize the ate.def file format. To change the value of more than one variable, type the first flag followed by the new value, followed by a space, then the second flag and second value, and so on. The alter subcommand can change more than one feature at a time. To bypass the Alter Menu, enter the alter subcommand, followed by the appropriate flags, at the command prompt on either ATE main menu. When issued without flags from either of the ATE main menus, the alter subcommand displays the Alter Menu. The settings return to the defaults as defined in the ate.def file format when the user exits ATE. The alter subcommand temporarily changes these data transmission characteristics: Issuing the ate command from the command line displays the Unconnected Main Menu. The alter subcommand is accessed from the Asynchronous Terminal Emulation (ATE) Connected or Unconnected Main Menu. Terminates an ATE connection to a remote system.ДЄ Note: The default values of the alter subcommand flags can be permanently changed by editing the ate.def file format. Temporarily modifies local settings used for terminal emulation.ДЄllows the user to issue workstation operating system commands while using ATE.Д®xits the Asynchronous Terminal Emulation (ATE) program. Provides help information for the ATE subcommands. Interrupts current activity on a remote system. Temporarily changes data transmission characteristics in the ATE program. The control keys and other ATE defaults can be changed by editing the ate.def file format.

These control keys do not function until the ATE program is started. The ATE program supports three control key sequences: the CAPTURE_KEY (usually Ctrl-B), PREVIOUS_KEY (usually CTRL-R), and MAINMENU_KEY (usually CTRL-V). The connect subcommand makes the connection. The Connected Main Menu displays when users press the MAINMENU_KEY (usually the Ctrl-V key sequence) while connected to another system. The Unconnected Main Menu displays any time users issue the ate command. From the menus, users issue subcommands to connect to a remote system, receive and transfer files, and execute commands. The ATE program uses menus and subcommands. ATE also enables a workstation to emulate a VT100 terminal. After logging in to the remote system, users execute programs, issue commands, and use files on the remote system as a local user.

Note: Users must be a member of the UNIX-to-UNIX Copy Program (uucp) group in order to use ATE. Using ATE the user can connect to, and exchange data with, remote databases and other systems. A workstation acts as a terminal connected to the remote computer. The ATE program establishes a connection between a workstation and a remote computer. The ate command starts the Asynchronous Terminal Emulation (ATE) program. Starts the Asynchronous Terminal Emulation (ATE) program. AIX Version 4.3 Commands Reference, Volume 1
