I wrote a terminal emulator which works fine for a modem,
but it doesn't work for a Mac whose serial port is connected
directly to a Unix box.  There is no hardware reset button.

My question is, how do you get the prompt message from the
Unix host?  How can I make software calls to achieve the same
effect as the hardware reset button?  Thanks
