I would like to write a simple program that uses the modem port.  I have never
really programmed the Macintosh before, except for copying the programs in The
Macintosh Programming Primer (I think that's the name of it).  Are there any
books out there that have examples of using the serial ports?  Are there any
sample sources available via anonymous FTP?  What part(s) of Inside Mac should
I read carefully, and what technotes are applicable?  And finally, what is the
Communications Manager, and do I have to/should I worry about that?

Thanks in advance!
