There is now a program on the system to connect to the IMSSS computer.
To invoke it type:
R IMSSS
and wait.  It will come back with either a lose message saying that
they are not responding, or that the link is already in use or will
connect you to their TENEX.  Once you are connected, you are talking
to their EXEC as if you had typed ↑C on one of their free terminals.
If you are at a display terminal you may type control characters as
for TELNET, that is, hold down the control key and type the
character.  The only code for which this is not the case is
control-X.  You can get control-X by typing _ (underbar - top 9).  If
you are on a teletype (also the network) then the TELNET control-E
convention applies.  That is, each succeeding control-E gets you
another bucky bit. 

There are two ways of typing commands at the IMSSS program.  One way
is similar to the form used by TELNET, that is, meta-char or
control-meta-char.  The other way is by means of extend mode
commands.  Extend mode is invoked by typing control-X, meta-X or
control-meta-X.  In the following table, ⊗ signifies meta or
control-meta, α signifies control, β signifies meta. 

Command		Extend mode Command		Action taken

⊗Q		QUIT or BYE		Break connection and close all files
βD		SAVE or OUTPUT		Start saving output in a file
αβD		CLOSE or FINISH		Finish saving output in a file
⊗S		STORE			Begin file transfer us to them
⊗R		RETRIEVE		Begin file transfer them to us
⊗Z		RESET			Reset the connection
					 ⊗Z aborts the file transfer too
It is preferable that you type ⊗Q or the extend commands QUIT or BYE to
break the connection, rather than just calling out, because this informs
the logger that you are through with the link and lets someone else use
it immediately.
