More specific questions, since no one answered the vague ones
last time:

What is MNP?  I gather it's a packet protocol, implemented
on a synchronous line when it's built into a modem.  How
can I find out the details, like packet format, error detection,
handshake method?

What kind of protocol does the Telebit use?  It seems to do
some sort of data compression as well.  What algorithm?

I've tried looking in the literature (even trade press),
but found next to nothing, so any help would be appreciated.
