I am trying to write my one terminal program - not to rival the one
existing but to understand how it works.

I keep asking myself: How does telemate manage to initialize my modem and
any other modem so perfectly while I hardly get my modem to open the line?

Does anyone know how to iniatialize modems, set baud rates?

I tried to hook to the com interrupt, but that didn't work either. It
simply doesn't seem to there. If I use the keyboard interrupt or the timer
interrupt, my program shows a reaction, but it never recognizes the
com-interrupt.

In article <19971014224800.SAA15...@ladder01.news.aol.com>,

yes read your manual for it's init strings setting the baud rate is done
by programming the uart.

you have to activate the irq.

get uart prog info it's hard tho.
