The bsd uucp, and uucps derived from it such as UKUUCP, has a pseudo
send-string in chat scripts, P_ZERO.  Honeydanber does not.  I have
a link, via a BT x25 interface, that only works when using ukuucp if
P_ZERO is sent.  (I don't know quite why; it dates back to before my
arrival here).  I now need to make this link work with Honeydanber.
What does the P_ZERO section of the code ``do''?  I need to add some
similar functionality (probably an extra escape character in Dialers).

I have V.2, V.3, bsd source licenses --- logistics mean that the bsd source
is 100 miles away.  If someone could chop the P_ZERO stuff out of bsd and
mail it to me, that'd be neat; if someone could EXPLAIN it that's be
better!!  I need this in a hurry...

Thanks for any pointers.
