NAME
  uutry - Trys to contact remote system with debugging on

SYNOPSIS
  uutry system

DESCRIPTION
  The uutry command is a shell that invokes uucico to call a remote site,
  system.  Debugging is turned on (level 9).  The debugging output is put
  into the file /tmp/system.  A tail -f on this file is executed so that the
  debugging output is printed on the terminal during execution.	 Typing the
  Interrupt key sequence gives control back to the terminal while uucico
  continues to run, putting its output in /tmp/system.

  The uutry command overrides any retry period for a remote system and will
  attempt to establish a connection immediately.

  The output file, /tmp/system is overwritten each time uutry is executed to
  system.
