Similar to termcap, the modemcap file should be an ASCII file that contains control command strings for smart asynchronous modems and provides for the software that uses it to be modem independent. I need documentation that defines the file format. I am also looking for software that accesses the file and exercises modem control using the control strings, although just the former would be sufficient (we can integrate modemcap into existing autodialing software if we get the file format and the software to access the file). I am familiar with System V's H-D uucp and the Dialers file. This is not modemcap as Dialers is for dialing only, not hanging up, resetting the modem, changing parameters, etc. I imagine that modemcap software may be implemented by a change to the dial (3C) routine. I believe I saw it implemented that way once on someone's System V Motorola box (?). Joe Schmidt Southwestern Bell Information Systems ({bellcore,ihnp4}!sw1e!slmds1!jfs)
