Keywords: Hypertalk, Smartmodem, phone Message-ID: <11@nrl-cmf.UUCP> Date: 27 Apr 89 19:41:54 GMT Organization: Society for the Creatively Deluded Lines: 11 I am a real Hypercard novice, and I would like to use it for the purpose of repeatedly dialing a likely-to-be-busy number and then giving the call to me on receipt of a ring. However, in the Hypercard literature I've looked at, I've seen no mention of a Hypertalk method for receiving the modem status code. Have I missed something, or is receiving from the serial port non-trivial? Thanks to all, Steven A Carrow carrow@itd.nrl.navy.mil or uunet!nrl-css!carrow
