Pressing the Send Queue Functions toolbar button ( 3.1.8 ) presents you with a screen which allows you to place files in the queue for sending.
First select the user to whom you wish to send the files via the popup menu.
You may also enter a message that will be sent with each file.
To load files you may either drop them onto the window, or select them individually by pressing the Select File button.
As files are selected they are shown in the listing. A green "pseudo-LED" indicates that the file has a resource fork ( see below ), while an orange one indicates no resource fork. The destination user and file name are shown.
When you have selected the files you wish to send, press the Load button. The Cancel button cancels the file load operation. The Delete button deletes items from the load list.
SockeToome will automatically convert files with resource forks to MacBinary format ( except .sit files which do not require it ). However, this operation is slow, and you are STRONGLY ADVISED to pre-convert files to .sit or .hqx format PRIOR to loading them into the queue.
Remember also that PC users have no use for resource forks!
SockeToome does not automatically convert incoming MacBinary files. Just drop them on Stuffit Expander or MacBinary III to unpack them.
SockeToome does send the Mac Type and Creator codes with files so that files are correctly typed at the other end.
