I recently picked up Atalk III and think its really a good program
(thanx Marco ;-), but I have a couple questions/criticisms:

1.  My modem is a Hayes compatible modem with no front-panel switches.
All functions are selectable via "AT" commands.  Most of the time, there
is a sequence of "AT" commands that I use to initialize the modem whenever
I start up a terminal program.  Does Atalk have a "spot" that I could enter
that startup command (say, in the phonebook) that I could attach this "AT"
command to and have it run once early in the session?  Would it be avoidable
if I try to do something special via a script (say)?

2.  Does Atalk support a "chat" mode?  What I mean (not that you don't
know, but...) is that if I turn on "chat" mode, a window would appear where
my typing would go until I hit return when the whole thing is transferred to
the normal screen.  It shouldn't interfere with any of the standard
emulations.
