Lines: 9 HELP!! I am trying to access my modem (under xenix 286). I have no idea how to do this and the manuals arn't very helpful. The modem is on tty1a (1A if you care about modem control). I just need some hints to help me get started. I tried to open tty1a as a file but had no luck. It seems that the modem won't accept anything I write there as a command. Any and all help is appreciated. Please E-mail if possible. Later Terry
