Thanks to all those people who mailed me descriptions of the uucp protocol. It
was all very useful. I now also have a copy of the "dcp" source code which
should come in very useful.

However, amongst all this info on the uucp protocol one thing was noticeaable
by its absence - a description of the protocol used by UKUUCP. As far as I know
this encodes the 'g' protocol to allow it to be used over 7,6 and 4 bit lines.
being in the UK I would like to try and adapt dcp to support this so that I can
talk to machines over 7 bit links. (V23 modems spring to mind...).

Any information anyone ?

Thanks.

-Pete.
