Re: [hylafax-users] Perl Gui Client

[Chris Parsons <chrisp@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Use the ftp commands. Much easier way of doing things.  By listing the
contents of the recvq through ftp, you will have a list of received faxes
labeled via however you wish. Also able to be sorted. Have a look at some of
the perl www front ends for hylafax available at the hylafax links page.
There are some good but easily hacked examples of how to do things in there.
