CS 141 Homework Assignment #8

In class graded exercise   

  overview: we are going to download and install, configure
    and run a better telnet program (which is free).
     I recommend you use this program,
      not windows telnet for the future.
       windows telnet often has trouble in vi,
        esp on the last line.

google.com search for: putty
    you should find a url like this:
    www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/

     download
      windows xp
       putty.exe
        save on the C: drive in our classroom
         create a dir whose name is your 3 char login
          (only needs 444 kb)
           
      note: the C: drive is re-installed periodically 
       so you may need to do this again in the future in our classroom

dbl click putty.exe
 uncheck so we don't get a warning each time we run it.
  first screen
     select ssh (encrypted) or telnet
      hostname: unix01.sac.edu
      saved session: unix01
      click save
   click on keyboard ( on the left )
      set backspace to ^H
      set Fn keys to SCO
      click session (on the left)
      click save
   dbl click on unix01

you will get a security alert
 select yes to save the key
  so it can be checked each time you log into that site.

   putty has rounded upper corners whereas telnet has square corners.

  Anything you high light in putty goes to the windows buffer.
   right click to paste the windows buffer into putty
    as though you typed it at the keyboard.
    Note: make sure your unix session is ready to accept this input,
     e.g. in vi, type i to be in insert mode first.

  In putty,
     try typing in a cmd
      then high light it with the mouse (to save in buffer)
       then right click to run the same cmd again.

  You can also copy from windows
   and paste into putty command line or vi.

  Highlight the following text
   and copy it into the windows buffer.
    (right click, copy)

   For each directory, the contents are listed. For each file, the
   filename is repeated and any other requested information is
   displayed. By default, the output is sorted alphabetically. When
   no argument is given, the current directory is listed. When
   several arguments are given, they are sorted appropriately; file
   arguments are processed before directories and their contents.

  in putty, type
    cd
    vi myproj
    i   (to go into insert mode)
        (right click to insert the paragraph into this doc)
        ESC
    :wq

to get credit
 type these commands:
    cat myproj
    id
      and raise your hand
       so your work can be graded by the instructor.
