BATSH Question

[Dale E. Goodell]

I'm just starting to use BATSH v2.28 and have a question about having 
BATSH timeout to a specific action.  

Here is the scernio. I have BATSH displaying a text screen with 
a choice to login to our Novell 4.10 network using Client 32. The 
user has a choice of C to continue (launch Client 32 and proceed 
with login), or Q to quit BATSH and not launch Client 32.  If the 
user presses any other key, BATSH forces an exit (the same as 
pressing Q).  All of this works great.

The problem is what BATSH does when it times out after a set period 
of inactivity (e.g., 40 seconds).  I want the BATSH timeout to NOT 
launch Client 32, but to act the same as pressing Q or any other key 
and simply exit. I have not been able to get this to work correctly.  
Currently, when BATSH times out, Client 32 launches.  How do I code 
the .BSH file so it just terminates after 40 seconds and does not 
launch Client 32?

A copy of my .BSH file follows.

Thank you, in advance, for your help.
