  YES YES YES, that would be a most useful feature if there is a way to 
do it. If anybody knows how to make HDB UUCP respect the various responses
from todays smart modems (I have several HAYES 2400's and several Telebit
Trailblazer Plus's), PLEASE Email me the information, or post to the net
as you see fit...
