Field of Application Statement for entering setup for the TRANSFER$ function.
Syntax TRANSFERSET[#],[#],[,]

input.

optionally enables or disables break on any other channel
than the source:

Default: Standard I/O with no break characters.
Break on any other channel enabled.
Remarks This statement sets up the transfer of data from a file or device OPENed for
input to another file or device OPENed for output or append. The transfer will
be interrupted if any character in a string of break characters, specified in this
statement, is encountered (optionally on another specified channel). The
actual transfer is executed by means of a TRANSFER$ function, that also
returns the break character that has caused any possible interruption.
Example In this example, the data transfer from a file in the current directory to an
external device connected to the communication port "uart1:" will be
interrupted as soon as a carriage return or a line feed character is
encountered in the file.
