The T: handler in NOT built into the XM301 OR the 1030 >modems. The T: handler is usually appended (or pre-pended) to the Sorry, wrong again. The T: handler _is_ actually loaded from the ROMs of both the XM301 and the 1030. In fact, this is why you can use the 1030 with _no_ software of any type -- it has its very own terminal emulator built in. If you have this as your only device on the SIO, the OS will automatically dump you into the most brain dead terminal program known to man. A program has to call this routine, however (like 1030 Express!) That is the high-speed squeal you hear when booting Express--it is the sound of data coming over the SIO (you know the annoying beeping sound that you get when data is read/wrote from disk or tape?) Same thing. >Paul Kopp -- Andrew Weaver, The Ohio State University College of Business UUCP: ...!cbosgd!cis.ohio-state.edu!weaver | "This ain'ta my planet, ARPA: weaver@tut.cis.ohio-state.edu | monkey-boy!" | - Emilio Lizardo
