There appear to be garbage characters in the HTML. What's up?

How do I send control characters or function keys?

Expect FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions)
Sending control characters is easy: just write a send command and enter the control character you want to send. I like to enter most control characters literally - since the resulting script is more readable. However, your editor has to allow this. For example, suppose you want to send a Control-A. Conventionally, most editors display this as ^A, but you can't just enter ^ and A. (This will just send those two characters.

Why don't I see pauses between characters sent with send -s?

Expect FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions)
From: jcarney@mtl.mit.edu (John C. Carney) Newsgroups: comp.lang.tcl Date: 12 Aug 1996 17:32:54 GMT Organization: Massachvsetts Institvte of Technology I am trying to use expect to spawn the kermit program. It then is supposed to dial the modem and procede. When I run kermit from the shell, it has no problem dialing the modem. However, when kermit is spawned by expect, it will not dial. I thought perhaps the input stream was too fast for kermit and tried send -s.

How do I send messages to members of the EPD Mailing List?

EPD FAQ (Enzyme Potentiated Desensitization FAQ)
To send a message to all the people currently subscribed to the list, just send mail to: epd@yahoogroups.com This is called "sending mail to the list", because you send mail to a single address and LISTSERV makes copies for all the people who have subscribed. This address (epd@egroups.com) is also called the "list address". You must never try to send any list command to that address, as it would be distributed to all the people who have subscribed.

What can I do to send her messages she can read?

Web Mail Blog: Ask Email Guy
Evidently the system you are sending from is not constructing proper MIME-encoded messages with a proper text part for readers that don't render HTML. So try sending plain text messages (no formatting or rich text or html) and she shouldn't have any problem. Add me to the list of people with "timing out" problems. I had my preference set to 24 hrs., but very frequently get "due to inactivity...." and have to sign back in. Tonight I changed the preference to 12 hrs.

How can I send errors to the screen, and debug messages to a file?

Log::Log4perl::FAQ - Frequently Asked Questions on Log::Log4...
Let's assume you want to maintain a detailed DEBUG output in a file and only messages of level ERROR and higher should be printed on the screen. Often times, developers come up with something like this: # Wrong!!! log4perl.logger = DEBUG, FileApp log4perl.logger = ERROR, ScreenApp # Wrong!!! This won't work, however. Logger definitions aren't additive, and the second statement will overwrite the first one. Log4perl versions below 1.

REPRO: How do I (not) receive copies of messages I send to the list?

The Miyazaki Mailing List - FAQ
