Entering Files via Setup

The names of the files that must be transferred from development host to remote host must be entered for each remote host. In this example, three files will be transferred to each host. They are manager.c , worker.c , and makefile.* , where the makefile name extension indicates for which host the makefile is appropriate.

The following process shows three ways to enter file names: 1) use the file browser, 2) copy and modify an existing file name, and 3) type in the file name using path names from prior entries. When typing in file names, it is possible to use the ``*'' symbol as a wild card. For example, *.c will create an entry for each file with the suffix ``c''.
